Justice and Mercy

I have been thinking about the justice of God lately. I have been thinking about this alot. I asked Marc the question the other day, "Why is God just and what does that mean?" He explained that justice was a question of truth. That truth and justice go hand in hand. So because He is the only Truth He is the ultimate justice. And that goes hand in hand with fairness which is justice without partiality.
It is easy to forget sometimes that the enemy of Truth is lies and deception and that God has no role in the lying and the deception. It is easy to forget sometimes that the enemy doesn't play fair and the variable to justice is our response to the attack of the enemy.
Have you ever imagined a world where justice, truth and fairness have been overpowered by evil, lies and deception? Where the moral compass of humanity has gone missing? Sometimes in those situations we human beings ask, "Why?" Why did this happen to me? God is always just and without partiality. When we say Life is not fair we are in essence accusing God of not being fair. But the truth is that He never changes. He is always just. This is Pastor Susan Living the Everyday Prophetic Life and thinking some deep theological thoughts.
