It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. Psalm 118:8
The day after a presidential election is either a victory for you or a defeat. In America we rely on the people to decide who will be the leader appointed to run our country. And with results as close as ours was, the fact will remain that it will leave the country divided. But I choose to remain hopeful and victorious because my Lord is still on the throne and He is my leader, yesterday, today and forever. We don't need to appoint a new leader every four years for He is in control of our lives for eternity. The president is just temporal. The Lord allows things to happen and it is all part of His plan so instead of being mad or upset your "choice" did not win, be grateful that Jesus is our King. After all, who do you go to for counsel when things are going on in your life? Do you rely on the president? Do you have his attention 24 hours a day, 365 days a year? Did He sacrifice His child's life so that you could have yours? Can he forgive you for your sins? I mean let's keep this in perspective. Rely on God for your future, for your children's future, for your careers and jobs, for your finances. Obey His law and all things will work together for your good. Don't listen to what the social media is saying. Don't get caught up in the aftermath of the election and go into a tailspin of panic over the economy or health care. I give my life to the Lord everyday and I ask Him to provide for me each and every day. I cannot control tomorrow and I cannot hold on to yesterday, all I can do is embrace the gift of my life today and rejoice in it for my Lord made it and I am going to give glory and honor to Him today. I pray for each and every one of you who has come to read these words . May we all be united in the One truth-that God is in control and we are to place all our confidence in Him, not man. So pray for your country, pray for your president and be graceful in all your say and do. There is victory today for all of us in Christ Jesus.
