TEMPLE OF JUSTICE

Deep within the human heart is a yearning to worship at the temple of justice. It’s a longing for the day when truth will at last triumph, when unresolved mysteries will be finally solved, and when all wrongs will be fully made right. Carved in time, the temple of justice is when “each of us shall give account of himself to God” (Romans 14:12) for every selfish act we’ve done, every wrong word we’ve spoken or written, every hasty judgment we’ve made, and every evil thought and motives we’ve cherished. Also, for every unfulfilled duty, neglected warnings, unimproved opportunities, and misused talent, funds, time, and influence. We who sigh because of injustice must seek refuge in God’s temple of justice, for none shall escape the irrevocable verdict of the Ultimate Judge. —SKP
