Do You Seek Justice?

Justice is something that I think everyone desires and sees a need for to some extent, unfortunately

some care more about themselves than the injustice they are causing. It is in all of us to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves, to cheer for the underdog, to be angered at those who take advantage of others. That is because God is just. It is part of His character, and He is just perfectly. We mirror that quality of God’s when we desire and fight for justice.

When Weakness Becomes An Excuse To Be Weak

As humans, we all have weaknesses. That is part of our nature. No one is perfect. It is really important to remember that when someone messes up. We need to have grace with others and ourselves. But can that be taken too far?

Be The Example You Want To See

It is so easy to see the faults in others. We can so readily point out the areas where they need to change, the choices they should make to achieve the desired outcome, or the bad choices that led to certain problems. Objectivity has its benefits. But that kind of advice isn’t always welcome, or well received. People don’t like to be told they are wrong (even if it’s true), and our attitudes and words can make it that much harder to swallow. How do you change the world if the world doesn’t want to be changed?

The Benefit of the Doubt

We have all been there; let down by someone we trusted. Unfortunately, it happens in every relationship. The issue is not to find someone who will not let you down, but how to deal with the pain when they do. It is natural to want to shut them out, never trust them again, and retreat into seclusion to never be hurt by another. But is that the best way to react?
