Yesterday & Today’s reading in the Founder’s Bible reminds us that every leader is a mixed bag…none are perfect. I love Hezekiah’s courage to rebel against Assyria & to ask God for more years to live & how he destroys the false gods…but then as foolish as a democrat congressman on the intel committee sleeping with a spy from China, he shows off all the wealth and secrets of the kingdom to strangers and has to suffer for it. Worse yet, when Isaiah reveals his punishment will be for his kids to live in tyranny, he says it’s all good as long as his lifetime has peace. Let us not model such selfishness. Much better to have war in our day and our children live in peace.
