God Is Just
PSALM 89:14 NIV
14 Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.
Every decent human being deeply detests injustice. When we see it in life, or even in a movie, it agitates us. Nothing makes our blood boil more than injustice.
We instinctively know injustice is wrong because God put that within us when He made us in His image. You can be sure that God's reign will never involve injustice of any kind.
PSALM 11:7 ICB
7 The Lord does what is right, and he loves justice. So honest people will see his face.
While we may not understand all that God might do in judging the human race, surely we can be confident with Abraham who said in Genesis 18:25, "Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?". God is fair. God is just. God does what is right. God is righteous. All these statements are equivalent.
People who would condemn God now are judging Him before the time -- before all the evidence is in -- before God has finished His great work with mankind.
Then, and then only, shall we see and understand the greatness of the mercy and the justice of our wonderful God.
ISAIAH 9:7 NIV
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the LORD Almighty will accomplish this.
SAY THIS: God is fair and just, and He is the ultimate and only judge that really matters.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ali who had surgery yesterday.

The Poem
I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease....
All day long I had no time
To spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends,
They'd laugh at me I'd fear.
No time, no time, too much to do,
That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die.
I went before the Lord,
I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God! held a book;
It was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said
"Your name I cannot find
I once was going to write it down...
But never found the time"

Now do you have the time
to pass it on?

2 CORINTHIANS 5:19 NIV
19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
The Good News is about reconciliation between God and man. Jesus Christ accomplished it.
Mankind was estranged from God. We had gone our own way, were lost, and couldn't find our way back to fellowship with God. Fortunately, God loved us and did something to help us.
Two extremely important ideas are presented in the above verse.
First, God is not holding people's sins against them! As far as God is concerned, Christ's sacrifice paid the penalty for all sin -- and God considers the world reconciled back to Him.
Second, this wonderful good news of what God has done has been committed to us. Human beings must tell it. If we don't -- it won't be told.
People can live and die and never know the glorious truth that God is not holding any sins against them -- if no one tells them.
They need to know they are forgiven, loved by God, and welcome to come back into fellowship with Him through Christ.
Think about this: God is interested in reconciliation. Not in shutting you, or others, out. He is inviting humanity in, saying all is forgiven.
SAY THIS: Thank You Father God for reconciling me and not holding my sins against me. Please help me to share this message with everyone.

Oh Lord, You are so wonderful
Did I take the time to pray,
Or did I find myself wrapped up
In other things today?

Did I remember to thank You
For the moon and stars above,
And all You have created
But most of all... Your love?

Did I mention that I'm thankful
I can read Your words each day,
By opening up my Bible
And to Your words, try to obey?

Did I remember to thank You too
For this beautiful sunny day,
For the birds that sing so joyfully
In their melancholy way?

Have I asked for Your forgiveness
When I complain of things I should not?
For I know, Lord, in my heart
I must be grateful for all I've got.

Did I thank You for the love
You have placed within my heart,
And for the many friends I have?
For with me, they are a part.

Finally, Lord, have I let You know
My life would be incomplete,
If I didn't know You, as my Savior...
The one someday I'll meet?
