God's Justice

    God's justice is different from human justice.  Our justice is motivated by pain, anger, or hate.  It is getting back at a person that we feel wronged us. God's justice is about correcting the person that sinned and holding them accountable.  There are always consequences, but He wants everyone to know that He is there for them.

    When God feels far away it can be lonely and hurtful.  It can feel like He walked out of the room when you were in mid sentence leaving you alone and feeling stupid.  Evil in the world wants you to feel that way.  Those feelings can stop you from talking to God.  Evil doesn't want you to see that He just took the judgment seat so that He could really listen.

    The world has no room for God in their lives.  They made the innocent their victims with the intent to crush their relationship with God.  The hardships of life can make it appear like God doesn't care.  We question God how can evil run free with no consequences.  

    God sees our pain more clearly than we see it.  Push through the pain to stay faithful.  He is there to encourage you along the way.  He is listening and building your defense.  He is working on justice even when we don't see it happening.

Psalm 10
