Will the Leaders Please Stand

I think it's apparent that our nation is suffering from a severe lack of righteous leadership. Washington has been tossed to and fro by what ever situation comes upon them at that specific moment. It took 1400 days before anything was done about the budget issue. The government just seems to be procrastinating over important issues until they are backed to a wall and are forced to do something. And that something is usually the wrong thing to do.

I'm sure the reader understands this, and already knows whats been going on in Washington and does not need  me to inform them of this, so I will not spend any more time on this but get straight to the point. We need leaders. Now. Real leaders, competent leaders, stirring leaders who understand the times in which we live, knowing what needs to be done and has the ability to motivate the people to do it. As Rabbi Daniel Lapin puts it We don't need Accountants but Crusaders. We don't need people who seem very smart or have a lot of money. We need people  who inspire others to believe in them, and can stir them to action.

But am I saying charismatic skills are all that's needed to make a leader?Absolutely not, Hitler was every bit as charismatic, if not more so, as Churchill. Both inspired nations to follow their lead and put their trust in them. However there's a big deference between Hitler and Churchill. Churchill inspired for good, the defense of the remaining free world and the liberation of the rest who were in bondage  Hitler inspired for evil, stirring up youth's so void of conscience they would kill millions in cold blood and would say as the adulterous woman in Proverbs 30:20 "I have done no wrong." What we need are leaders with integrity, men and women who will encourage this nation unto righteousness. Standing firm on the principles that have founded this great nation, the Holy Scriptures.

We need leaders with backbone, that will stand firm even when it means standing alone, even when it means be coming unpopular, and yes, even when it means being rejected by members of your own party if need be. John Quincy Adams was this kind of leader, several times he was almost expelled from congress because what he had to say about slavery was unpopular, even with his own party. But it was truth, and that's what kind of leaders we need ones who will side with truth no matter the cost. Are you ready to be that kind of leader? Yes, we must be the leaders I have just been describing, we must build the moral character within ourselves and if your a parent your children. We must stand and be the next Churchills, and John Quincy Adams. We must stand up, stand firm, and follow Christ and His word. Only then will we truly be the change. Only then can we ever hope to restore America.

Solus Christus,
Adam
