God says not to trust in man. Even if He didn’t, no wise person would. All human beings are fallible. The best of us make harmful mistakes: even the most upright of us may WILLFULLY turn from righteousness.
So this is not about the man himself: he is fallible and will make mistakes: but I’m hopeful in the things on which our new President has set his heart. Foremost, his sincere faith in God; his belief in Christ’s teachings, and his determination to do as Christ commands.
Our nation’s greatest needs are exactly what Christ commanded of us all: heal the sick, show mercy to the poor and aliens, “speak the truth in love” (Ephesians 4:15), and love one another.
I trust all honest Americans, even (if any) among “Christian conservatives” and Republicans, wish these things for our country. I trust all honest Americans will join in doing God’s will for our suffering nation.
Amen !
