\u201cI had never known such a man as he and never shall again,\u201d said journalist William Allen White after meeting President Theodore Roosevelt in 1897 for the first time. \u201cHe overcame me. And in the hour or two we spent that day at lunch, he poured into my heart such vision, such ideals, such hopes, such a new attitude toward life and patriotism and the meaning of things, as I had never dreamed men had.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter that, I was his man.\u201d<\/p>\n
If a mere mortal can have such an effect on another, how much more our Lord? If we will spend time with him in prayer and in Scripture, we too will find our hearts filled with vision, with hopes, with a new attitude toward life and the meaning of things, and afterward we too will say with thankfulness, \u201cI am his.\u201d<\/p>\n
