Prov 16:9 The {mind} of a person will plan his ways, and Yahweh will direct his steps. All around the world, since he won the election, people have found it hard to believe that Donald Trump is now President of the United States. Even after over a month of whirlwind news cycles coming out of Washington, after all of that drama, people are still shaking their heads in bewilderment as to how he got to be leader of the free world. Well, if you put on your Christian hat, the fact that there is now a President Trump means that it is all a part of God’s master plan. He has a plan for us all, correct? So, this is God’s plan. I just can’t swallow the fact that Trump got God’s vote and that Donald is now a general in his divine plan for the future of humanity. I have tried and tried but no, that jumbo size lump is just not going to pass the esophagus unless it is broken up a little bit or, explained a bit better. And around the world there are hundreds of millions of Christians and others who feel the same way. As a Canadian, a man living maybe fifty miles from American soil for most of my life, having grown up on their TV stations and sit coms and learning about all things America in my grade school years, as well as having spent a great deal of time traveling through its towns and cities and communities all across that wonderfully picturesque land, I can say with some measure of privilege and right that what is going on in the US right now is like holding a grenade in one hand and the pin in the other. There is either going to be an explosion soon or someone, somewhere is going to have the smarts to reconnect the pin. And there are no other real options. Romans 9:28
For the Lord will carry out his plan decisively, bringing it to completion on the earth." This explosive and divisive political environment is as unique as anything I’ve seen from beneath the 49th parallel and the farce has become as serious as the eighth second in a bucking bronco rodeo ride. The western way of life, democracy, freedom and Christianity are all being challenged. And Donald J. Trump is responsible to meet such challenges and so very many more. Frightening. Simply, frightening. But, if you are a Christian and your belief is solid then all of this nonsense out of Washington shouldn’t be of any concern. After all, Trump is a Christian, too, and that means he is part of God’s plan for the earth and all of its residents. In that scenario, Trump is playing a part in God’s theatre. So, win or lose, throwing nukes or pillows at our enemies, building up or smashing down global economies, making fun with the Putin’s of the world and paying a Putin price for it in the end, well, it’s all good, even if it’s all bad, because it’s all God’s plan. And, no loving God would let us fail miserably, correct? I mean, look at all we’ve been through, including all the misery over the centuries. We somehow managed to survive and thrive. It hasn’t been easy but what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, right? Unless that is the plan, too. Bottom line is: if you are true to your faith God has a hand in this terribly polarizing White House mess that impacts the entire planet. And, true to faith, we have to accept and trust, his will. Or, use the human ace of spades, our God given free will, to subjugate God’s actions and do something to deal with or reverse the whole Trump phenomenon, the misogynistic, polarizing, blowhard, ego – megalomaniacal, narcissistic leader of the free world commander of the most powerful weapons’ arsenal the earth has ever seen and CEO of the economies of just about every nation on the planet phenomenon. To be specific. Unless that is the plan, too. So, Mr. President, fake/real media hater and all the other things I mentioned above with one more caveat: guy with the worst hair comb over since General McArthur, either way one looks at it you are now God’s shiny new red corvette convertible so please be careful and try not to smack into a brick wall (Mexican walls excluded). Let him do the driving and then park somewhere in four years’ time and give back the keys. Let’s hope that is God’s plan for President Trump. Comments are closed.
