Confidence is a matter of trust.
We all like to think that there are those whom we can trust. We especially think that those in places of leadership should be trustworthy. There is, however, a prevalent wrong misconception about this matter of trust. It seems that many in our day assume that just because a person has been given a place of leadership they are automatically worthy of confidence. Such is not the case and it seems that the repeated failure of those who occupy places of great responsibility should have convinced us of this fact.
