JOURNAL/WHERE DO YOU FIND YOUR JUSTICE

"JUSTICE and PEACE shall meet"    Psalm 85:11

Psalm 85 reminds us that justice and peace are UNITED in a single gesture of kindness and love and that justice and peace are joined together at the DESIRES of God's HEART

and Matthew 9 tells us:  BLESSED are the peacemakers for they shall be called the CHILDREN OF GOD-
Saint Elizabeth of Portugal-whose feast day it is today-was a TRUE peacemaker as she worked for the DIGNITY of ALL GOD'S CHILDREN

it truly is A GREAT DAY to be ALIVE and look forward to LIVING in a world with you LORD-where justice and PEACE will UNITE US ALL














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 the 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


WHERE do you get your justice


“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 thought FAITH in Jesus Christ
To ALL who believe


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


AND ARE JUSTIFIED
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
