Don't ya hate that?!?

so here I sit in all my "righteous anger"...

"I have been wronged..." "she hurt me..." "she is living that way..." "how can she be rewarded with love?"

pondering all of these things and wanting so badly to find a scripture about "Justice" that will validate my frustrations, i find this...

Micah 6:8

"He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."

now all you scholars out there would say, don't take just a single scripture, that is out of contet. And usually i would say you are correct. However, God seems to work work in ironically humbling ways as apposed to mysterious (hand-waving and eye-rolling inserted here).

SHOT DOWN! thta's what i felt. I was angry and self-righteous, asking why she is being rewarded with happiness and success after having ruined a friendship for no reason! And yet, "He has SHOWED you..." He did not merely order or command me... He SHOWED me! He was betrayed far worse than i could ever imagine, and yet here i am shaking my fists at the sky.

How quickly we forget!
