JUSTICE-WHERE DO YOU FIND IT

JUSTICE-WHERE DO YOU FIND IT


For the umpteenth time
This week in Miami
I have seen someone on television
Crying out for someone
To come forward
So they can get JUSTICE
For a family member who has been WRONGED

We ALL
Have INJUSTICES in life
And often times
LIFE JUST ISN’T FAIR

“DO NOT put your trust
In mortal men
WHO CANNOT SAVE”                                                 Psalm 146:3

“BLESSED is he
Whose HELP
IS the God of Jacob
Whose HOPE
Is in the LORD HIS GOD”                                                   Psalm 146:5

IT’S GREAT
If we can find justice
In this world

It’s great
If we can find justice
In the LAWS of our world

IF LIFE
Treats us fairly

But you know
As well as I do
That that
Doesn’t always happen

The Lord Our God
HATES INJUSTICE

“SEEK GOOD-not evil
That you MAY LIVE
Then the Lord God Almighty
Will be with you
Just as you say he is

HATE evil-love good
Maintain JUSTICE in the courts”                                                 Amos 5:14-15

The Lord God
Hates injustice

“HE has showed you
Oh man
What is good

And what does the Lord
Require of you

To act justly
And to LOVE MERCY
And to WALK HUMBLY
With Your God”                                                                       Micah 6:8

Those who act unjustly
Those who show NO MERCY
In this world
Will receive their punishment
From the Lord

But those of us
WHO ACT JUSTLY
Who show mercy to others
Will be FREED from guilt or blame
BY FAITH

“But NOW
A righteousness from God
APART from law
Has been made known

The RIGHTEOUSNESS from God
Comes through FAITH in Jesus Christ
TO ALL who believe

There is NO DIFFERENCE
For ALL have inned
And fall short
Of the glory of God

AND ARE JUSTIFUED
Finally by his GRACE
Through the redemption
That came by Christ Jesus”                                                                     Romans 3:21-24

MY FRIENDS
There is NO justice
In this world

OUR justice
And our JUSTIFICATION
Can come ONLY THROUGH GOD
