Joyful Justice

Yes.

Having God turn your life upside down and ask you to live out your faith in a way that embodies social justice carries a steep price tag.

Yes.

Opening yourself up to reality of the things that are going on in our world can hurt.

But,

At it's core, justice is something that God instigated. It is a gift from Him.

And, that makes it a good gift, a joyful act that leads to worship,

Because where justice is, His glory follows,

And, His glory inspires joy in His children.

Yes.

It's okay to be not okay with the things that are going on in the world.

That's kind of the whole point.

When it comes down to it though, make sure that your sense of justice is coming from a place of joy.

If it's not. There is a problem.
