You know, I have read this letter several times over the years. But now that he is gone, it touches more deeply. How wonderful for him to write us this letter - it is such a comfort and inspiration to read after his passing.
Actually, come to think of it, most of the things he said during his presidency were comforting and inspiring.
Every time I read that letter it makes my eyes - well, blurry for a while.
Especially now.
I consider him a great man, and a humble one. And only a humble man is truly great. Only by humbling oneself at the feet of God is one truly humble, and such humility brings great confidence.
