This morning I briefly pondered why it is so challenging thinking about God’s character and I believe it is because we in our fallen state cannot relate to One who is holy and just. One who never lies. One who is only capable of justice, true justice. We read the Old Testament and in our own judgment, we question the fairness of many stories that we read. We truly miss the understanding of who God is and what He is not capable of which is what we do on a regular basis.
Some may see God’s justice as unjustice. Whoa to any of us who choose to judge God’s character. In reality God is not capable of injustice. Whether we choose to understand it or not. That part of His character should encourage us. We know that He is also merciful and that is something we all welcome with open arms. Choose this day to trust God. Trust Him in all of His character in who He says He is.
