What next?

Now all the sudden it seems congress and Senate are concerned with hacking. There was no problem with Hillary's unsecured server doing State Department business on said unsecured server. Now it is a big deal. Even John McCain is concerned. Where was all this concern during Hillary's years as Secretary of State? I hear concern about Trump's ability to lead with no experience in government. Where was Obama's experience,  a partial term as a Freshman Senator. No experience as a business man either. Because Trump doesn't owe favors in Washington, they can't figure out how things are going to run. They have nothing to pressure him to compromise. He doesn't owe John McCain or other senators any favors. He didn't pick people for his cabinet that he owed a favor to, he picked from successful businessmen like himself that know how to get results and run large organizations. Men that probably know how to get rid of waste. I read editorials about how can Trump lead considering his words of 11 years ago. Those same people have nothing to say about Hillary covering up for her Husbands actions over the past 30-40 years.  I can read face book posts about business failures of Trumps, but never a word about the Clinton Foundation corruption. The man on the inside of the foundation that they believed might have been leaking info has disappeared.  Justice is fair. When people want true justice they want it for everyone not just for their opposition.  People are reprimanded for a lot less than Hillary or Bill have done, but their actions are ignored and poo poo'd because so far they haven't been charged with any crime. Where is justice? We want justice but we are unwilling to accept the decisions of a Grand Jury, and praise a mob? How sick is this? Does this  sense to anyone? We want law and order but want to condemn the people we hire to uphold the law. We want Trump to voice support for the results of the Electoral College, but when he wins the other side want to fight to infinity?  We have studies done that say there is no imbedded racism in our police departments but still we make a saint out of a robber and call the police unjust.  I do not know what to make of all this. I do know God is sovereign. The ones that fight are fighting against God.  God knew this crap would happen long before it happened. I believe that is why he gave us Trump. The left needs to be concerned with how long God will tolerate their tantrum.  In Numbers 16 is this story:  Then Moses rose and went to Dathan and Abiram, and the elders of Israel followed him. And he spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart, please, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be swept away with all their sins.” So they got away from the dwelling of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. And Dathan and Abiram came out and stood at the door of their tents, together with their wives, their sons, and their little ones. And Moses said, “Hereby you shall know that the Lord has sent me to do all these works, and that it has not been of my own accord. If these men die as all men die, or if they are visited by the fate of all mankind, then the Lord has not sent me. But if the Lord creates something new, and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that belongs to them, and they go down alive into Sheol, then you shall know that these men have despised the Lord.”
And as soon as he had finished speaking all these words, the ground under them split apart. And the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the people who belonged to Korah and all their goods. So they and all that belonged to them went down alive into Sheol, and the earth closed over them, and they perished from the midst of the assembly. And all Israel who were around them fled at their cry, for they said, “Lest the earth swallow us up!” And fire came out from the Lord and consumed the 250 men offering the incense.  Numbers 16:25-35  This story shows us what a sovereign God is capable of.  God did something new here. Those that fought against God were swallowed up alive, they and their whole families. Now I do not expect God to do something like this, but God is sovereign and he will work his way. I have a fear of God. When I speak of a fear of God, it is a healthy respect. I have heard these and other stories from my youth, and I believe them. I remember a time I planted some bushes at a church I attended. I pulled weeds and mowed the lawn etc. I noticed some shrubs that had died in the landscaping. I found out what they were and bought some at a nursery and replaced them. It was probably a Monday or Tuesday afternoon when I planted them. The next Wednesday when I went to church they were gone, just the new ones I had planted. Someone had come in and taken the new plants. I thought , these people are stealing from God. I thought how evil. Nothing happened that I know of, I have no awesome story to tell. I just replaced the plants a second time and they stayed. I have a healthy respect for God, I would not have done that. I do know God saw whoever took those plants. If not in this life time then in eternity they will come before a Holy Sovereign God. These extreme liberals that are causing discord in our nation, will face God on Judgement day. I would be afraid to test God in this way because I believe the story in Numbers 16 is true. Perhaps God will not do anything new, but he can. He is sovereign. He has protected Israel against extreme odds since 1948. God keeps his word. I would be afraid to do what people have no fear in doing today. I believe God is sovereign. I believe this election has God's signature on it. I wasn't a Trump fan from the beginning, but I believe God put Trump in office and will Protect him. Even if you don't see anything extra ordinary in this life time, you do stand before God on Judgement day. Christians will be OK no matter what happens, but I fear to be in the hands of a just God on Judgement day.  I would rather experience his love. God bless, LVZ.
