Billy Graham spoke at the North Carolina’s Tribute to President John F. Kennedy on May 17, 1964. Here is an excerpt of Mr. Graham’s remarks as we reflect on the 50th anniversary of JFK’s death:
“Ladies and gentlemen, none of us knows when our moment is coming. For some of us it may be today. And the Bible says [Amos 4:12], “Prepare to meet thy God.” We are to be ready at any moment.
“I remember when I was riding along the road with the president, he was driving. He suddenly turned to me and asked me a very interesting question that I’ve never forgotten. He said, or he asked, “What do you think the meaning of history is? Where do you think history is going?
“I told him, that the Bible teaches that God has a plan for history. There’s a purpose. There’s a meaning to every life and each one of us has a job to do. Our life may be long, it may be short, but there is coming a day when the Kingdom of God shall prevail and men shall know permanent peace on this earth.”
