Do You Feel Different?

 Now that it's over, do you feel any different? Happy, sad? Hopeful, hopeless? I'm talking of course about inauguration day 2021. Some people were extremely excited to see the last president go. Some are fearful of what the new president will do. America is very divided on this. Are you hoping that the new president will do better things for America? Are you feeling hopeless because the guy that some voted for did not get in? 

Well, I'm here to tell you that I'm neither. My only hope is in Jesus Christ.

Hebrews 13:8 New Living Translation

8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

His leadership never changes. Don't have to worry what will happen four years from now with Him. Even in 8, 12, or forever. He never changes.

So many people are putting their hope in the government. To help them. Fix or make their problems go away. To provide for them. Especially after this past year that we have gone through.

Psalm 121:1-2 English Standard Version

121 I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? 2 My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

I depend on The Lord for help. Help in every situation. He is the one that I lean on. He is the one that I trust in. His love never fails. People are putting their hope into a president who doesn't even know their name. You know who knows your name? Jesus. He knows every name. 

Romans 12:12 Amplified Bible

12 constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength]

So I may or may not agree with the changing of the guard today in Washington D.C. But one thing that I am going to do is pray for the new president and vice president and their team. That God will lead them, guide them and direct them onto the path that He has already laid out for them. That He will soften hearts and minds.

Amen!
