Seeking Justice
Sharing what we read.
In the book of Deuteronomy - all God's ways are justice.
In Job, that God has established His throne for justice.
Jeremiah: He would execute justice and righteousness in the land.
Isaiah prophesied the Messiah would proclaim justice to the Gentiles and that His very throne would be upheld by justice - forever.
The Bible includes the words "just" or "justice" 131 times. Is our system of justice following the heart of God?
A Hymn
I heard the voice of Jesus say,
"I am this dark world's Light;
look unto Me, thy morn shall rise,
and all thy day be bright."
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in Him my Star, my Sun;
and in that Light of life I'll walk,
till trav'ling days are done.
-Horatius Bonar, 1846
