The world has taken notice of a text message from U.S. ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee to President Donald Trump. The message offered encouragement to the president as he and other world leaders contemplate how to handle the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict.
Trump shared the text from the former Arkansas governor on Tuesday, and current Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Huckabee’s daughter, voiced support of her dad and his message on social media.
Huckabee’s text to Trump reads:
Mr President, God spared you in Butler, PA to be the most consequential President in a century—maybe ever. The decisions on your shoulders I would not want to be made by anyone else. You have many voices speaking to you Sir, but there is only ONE voice that matters. HIS voice. I am your appointed servant in this land and am available for you but I do not try to get in your presence often because I trust your instincts.
No President in my lifetime has been in a position like yours. Not since Truman in 1945. I don’t reach out to persuade you. Only to encourage you. I believe you will hear from heaven and that voice is far more important than mine or ANYONE else’s. You sent me to Israel to be your eyes, ears and voice and to make sure our flag flies above our embassy. My job is to be the last one to leave.
I will not abandon this post. Our flag will NOT come down! You did not seek this moment. This moment sought YOU! It is my honor to serve you!”
