White House Heartbreak
You
think modern presidential campaigns are rough? When Andrew Jackson ran for
president almost 200 years ago, his opponents lowered the boom on him in ways
that would shock even modern, Internet-numbed critics. Jackson was accused of
being a murderer, an out-of-control gambler, and a traitor. They said his
mother was a prostitute and his father a “mulatto” man. And his wife, Rachel,
was labeled a bigamist. Becoming First Lady should have been a wonderful honor,
but Rachel so hated Washington D.C. and all the rancor it produced that when
Jackson was elected, a friend noted that her “energy subsided, her spirits
drooped, and her health declined.” Rachel died of an apparent heart attack
before her husband was inaugurated.

The hope of the righteous brings joy, but
the expectation of the wicked will perish.
Proverbs 10:28

Why
should you place your hope in the eternal? Because when your expectations are
on earthly things, they will perish…someone will be along shortly to kick you
in the teeth and steal your joy. Far better to build your foundation on Jesus
Christ – only then can your work survive.
Today, ask for wisdom to be focused on righteous things, and may others in America see your example and seek Him.
