Yesterday was Trump’s
Inauguration ceremony and according to him the four years of his presidency are
going to be a historical moment (Every moment can be historical; good or bad). In his inauguration speech he sounded to be
the only outstanding leader America has been waiting for. He seems to be the
only one with a clear course of action for the government. He somehow made it
sound like the past 44 presidents of the USA have not done much for such a
beloved nation. Was he true about himself? May be yes or may be no. Moreover there
have been strikes here and there to oppose his presidency. If he was as good as
he claims to be, may be people would not be having mixed feelings.
A thorough analysis of
all the governments of the world clearly shows that not even one of them
comprises of the best leadership. Each of the leaders takes themselves to be
the very best even when they have those who do not approve what they say. Truth
be told, there is no perfect leader on this planet. Humans are imperfect by
nature and that’s why each of us has weaknesses. The
fact is that, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does well
and who never sins. Not even the best “Christians”!!!.
If we are our selves
are not perfect why then do we expect our leaders to be perfect yet they have
the same human nature? Job answered it clearly in Job 9:20 "Though I am righteous, my
mouth will condemn me; though I am guiltless, He will declare me guilty”. James
went ahead to remind us that we all stumble as in James 3:2 “For we all stumble in many ways If anyone does not stumble
in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body as well”.
The good news is that there is one perfect man who ever
lived, who lives and who lives forever. His name is Jesus and his main concern
is to make us perfect like him. May be instead of blaming our leaders and
counting ourselves better than them we should start praying for them. We should
keep stepping in Jesus’ footsteps if we are to be perfect. If we are to attain
the crown he has for us. We should wake
up, and strengthen our faith as we find our deeds successful according to the
sight of God. We have to yield to his leading and let his will be done.
The
truth is that God can use even the imperfect leaders for his Glory. May be
according to you Trump is not qualified to be the president of USA. Can you
trust God to use him? Our human flaws can be used by God. He is the only savior
that the world needs. He has the answers to all our questions and we can have a
peace of mind in him alone.
