At home, he lives with his mother, who is a salonist, and his sister. Lincoln's mother's income is very low and is unable to support his education. If he could find someone to support him, Lincoln would be able to face the challenges around him and work towards a better future. Would you consider praying about being that friend to Lincoln?
