I wrote a post recently on this same topic using the Lincoln County War as the historical event that I tied it to. I have to admit, God had some things to say to me when I was doing my research.
I despise injustice with a fiery passion so I really had to meditate on understanding that God's justice doesn't always look like we want it to look. A tough but powerful lesson.
Yes, it' hard to practice forgiveness of injustice, but it helps to remember that God will deliver perfect justice. We strive to be just and to oppose injustice , but in the end God will take care of it.
Considering that some of our most treasured American historical mythologies and narratives (and even notions of "justice") may have been deliberately guided by Masons and other secret societies, this certainly resonates. Amen.
For anyone to expect full justice while on this broken earth is to set oneself up for complete disappointment. It can't and won't happen until those things that you well noted take place in God's timing and His way. We have a present example of this happening as we now have a justice on the SCOTUS worried because the First Amendment is doing precisely what the Constitution intended: hamstringing the government. Of course, this same judge also says she can't tell us what a woman is, so there is that!
There is a reason fearing God is the beginning of wisdom. He is a God of judgement.
Amen to that Kate!

I wonder what else that so-called Supreme Court Justice doesn't know...
Sadly, given enough time, we'll probably find out.
