Today is President's Day 2017. President's Day became an official holiday in 1971. While it was originally instituted to celebrate Washington's and Lincoln's birthdays, which are just a few days apart, it has become a day we honor all those that have served this great country in such a great capacity.
With this thought in mind, I want to thank all those who have sacrificed and served our country as President. It is a thankless job, with a never-ending innumerable supply of critics. It seems that no matter what you do in that particular office, you will always make over half the population displeased. I think many people put way too much adoration into who is President and don't remember that GOD is still in control.
Today's word is Psalm 188:8, ESV, which reads, "It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man."
Man will let you down, always have, always will. Most don't do it on purpose but we are all human and human tendency is to take on too much and often accomplish too little. We have a propensity to rely on others to do things that they never do. But, we can rest assured that GOD will ALWAYS do exactly what He says.
Thanks Mr. Presidents for taking the time to help our country and to serve in such a great capacity. We pray for you daily, and our prayer is that you will rely on GOD to direct your path and your decisions. Happy President's Day!
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
