Even Trump is Insecure

My wife noticed something a couple weeks ago while we were watching The Apprentice. Not only has it been true for the last couple weeks, but looking back I think he’s always done it after he fires someone. He turns to his advisors and asks them (in one way or another) if he made the right decision.

It is funny that one of the most confident men in the world has to find validation as much as I do. He has to have someone tell him that he was right. They say that the most dogmatic and overconfident people are really trying to despirately overcompensate for their insecurities.

If it’s true for Donald Trump, it’s more true for me. I need to be assured that I am right after all. That’s why I am glad that Christ has justified me. Most people have heard about Jesus’ love. Many people believe Jesus is forgiving. What often gets overlooked is that Jesus justified us by faith (Romans 5.1). That means that when God looks at us he doesn’t see all the sin and ways we fall short but sees that we are right because of what Christ has done.
