what is honor?

I know of a man of God who has faced many scoffers and yet he is still upbeat. Many that have been in his position before have fallen in a depression or felt immobile and unable to do much. Some were men of God. I do have to admit that my eyes are more keen today than when I was younger and only have this world's history books to go by. Yet, I stand amazed by this man's courage to face a country who has the all time low approval rating for him.

Peel back this earthly layer and see this man surrounded by prayer warriors and see God's Almighty Hand resting upon his shoulder and there you will that this man keeps about him an inner calm provided only by the Hand of God. There is no arrogance only a positive outlook which the media faults him on. I see it that he has successfully casted out all scoffers from him mind and continues on to fight the good fight. He has kept this nation from a harm more deadly and fierce than just a couple countries who hate us and disclaim the existence of Israel because when they state that Israel isn't a country they discredit that God even exist!

Here I wax on so let me get straight to the point. Where is our respect and honor? Does it lie upon what we feel? Does it relate to opinion polls? Should you let hollywood or the media or some star tell you what honor is? How do you show respect and honor? It is lofty or is it lowly? It is too grand or should it be simple and pure?

Proverbs 20:28
Love and faithfulness keep a king safe; through love his throne is made secure.


Proverbs 21:1
The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.

Proverbs 25:2
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.

Proverbs 29:4
By justice a king gives a country stability, but one who is greedy for bribes tears it down.
