May we leave an impact on the lives that God has placed around us too. Very encouraging Matthew! Thank you for taking the time to share this! “They trusted completely in God’s workings, willingly gave their lives for the heritage which those before them had created, and then invested into the next generation.”

And all from flipping through a calendar! Thanks for sharing. A short book on Lee that I enjoyed was <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=awQd7lRfQK0C" rel="nofollow">Call of Duty: The Sterling Nobility of Robert E. Lee</a> by J. Steven Wilkins. It was an inspiration to emulate his character. Several years ago I remember watching the film <a href="http://godsandgenerals.warnerbros.com/" rel="nofollow">Gods and Generals</a> and was quite surprised at how good it was at documenting the life of Stonewall Jackson during the early years of the Civil War. His devotion to the Lord was sincere and as you stated, he understood that God controlled all events, victory or defeat. Fascinating report, Matthew. And all from flipping through a calendar!

Their humililty, quiet leadership, and relationship with Christ are qualities I desire to exemplify. They are indeed examples of the Scripture verse, "When a man's ways pleas the Lord, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him." Thank you Matthew for the excellent bio!
