In a very real sense, America as an experiment would have failed were it not for George Washington. His refusal to be king, his willingness to peacefully pass off power to another, and his humility and grace as a leader were unprecedented in history.
Though Lincoln stands on his own in a different way, there would have been no Lincoln were there no Washington.
Thank You, Lord for blessing this country with great leaders when we have needed them most!
PING!
