Hello, thank you for joining me today, forgive him, 15. The title of today's post is

America, Finding Our Way Back. I believe President Trump is a very misunderstood man. He's often judged

negatively for his brash, even brazen, comments and posts.

At times, he's perceived as stubborn, opinionated, and egotistical.

My purpose in today's post is not to defend his personality.

I, too, at times, find myself wishing he would say things differently,

but simply to offer some perspective.

First of all, President Trump was obviously fashioned by God to be an agent of change, a forerunner of sorts.

He has been tasked with leading the governmental aspect of America finding its way back to greatness.

Jeremiah told Israel to, quote, stand at the crossroads, ask for directions to the old road,

Forerunners are pathfinders, waymakers, and pioneers.

They're a different breed of leader, willing to take risks and move into uncharted regions and endeavors.

And they're tough. Like mountain men in times past, they must be more stubborn than the terrain,

the climate, the assignment, the desert or mountain range they are being challenged by.

Like the scouts for America's settlers and wagon trains of old,

present-day forerunners find the way through treacherous seasons

and over society's mountains of adversity. Then they lead others on the right path.

Sometimes these guides know the way because of past journeys or from past journeys.

Sometimes they must find or even make one. The path they find isn't always easy to travel.

Their assignment is not to make everyone comfortable, but to lead them safely through,
