JOURNAL/JUSTICE-WHERE DO YOU FIND IT

JOURNAL-JUSTICE-WHERE DO YOU FIND IT




“BLESSED are you who are now weeping-for you WILL LAUGH” Luke 6:21


MY FRIENDS-WE LIVE in a world of UNBELIEVABLE INJUSTICE-and it sometimes seems impossible to find joy WHEN we are experiencing IMMENSE LOSS


FOR those of you who are FEELING loss or INJUSTICE in today's world-I HIGHLY RECOMMEND READING the BEATITUDES of Jesus-Matthew 5:3 to 5:12-it is PART of Jesus' SERMON on the mount and is PART of my own PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE


IT ends with:


“REJOICE-and be exceeding GLAD for GREAT is your REWARD in heaven” Matthew 5:12


-JESUS and GOD KNOW your pain and mine


IT IS a great day to BE ALIVE in THE LORD'S LOVE for us-and a GREAT DAY to LIVE with JOY and HOPE even when we are experiencing loss and pain in our personal lives


FOR our happiness and JOY comes from THE LORD
















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
