Injustice is when justice lacks fairness. The punishment must fit the crime. It means that we are responsible not to over react or ignore an offense. Crime can be an action or an occasion of injustice. Most crimes are black and white and we have a standard punishment to uphold justice, but that is not always the case. There are individual or subjective injustices.
We live in a world that is not black and white. There are people in the position of power that are not strong enough to uphold justice or flat our corrupt. This means that the law has holes in it where injustice or unrighteousness does occur. Some people are so dark that they knowingly seek injustice. How do we deal with that?
When our leaders spread the poison of injustice we have to be on guard. We are held personally responsible for our own actions. That means that when injustice has become acceptable that we have to live with integrity. We have to live above it and do what we can to uphold justice around us. We don't have to be politicians to do this. We just have to push past the charm and face reality.
We face the ugliness of the world, then we go to God. We address our concerns and pain over injustice. Tell Him everything you see and how it makes you feel. Ask Him to take care of it and what your part needs to be in making things better. Stay on guard because if you are involved in change, then corrupt people will start coming after you. Trust that God will protect you. God rewards righteousness because He is the ultimate judge of this world.
Psalms 58
