JUSTICE

"one must deal with the ultimate questions of life—such as the origin, meaning, and the purpose of life. Furthermore, critically analyzing these questions, one would inevitably face the question of whether this world is designed by a creator, as the Bible describes it, or whether it is a world that is a result of an accident, as the naturalist would put it. If it is designed, then God is the reference point for all true justice. On the contrary, if it is merely an accident, then humanity becomes the ultimate reference point for all judgments. True justice in any society is one that is anchored on objective moral values, which do not change either on the basis of time or culture.(3)

"Our only hope is to point our lamps toward the heavens where the just one not only reaches out to forgive, to restore, and to set us on a straight path, but who steps among us to show us the way."  Balajied Nongrum, Slice of Infinity

ENCOURAGEMENT

"Let me offer this final word of encouragement for those who are determined to slow the pace:  once you get out from under constant pressure, you'll wonder why you drove yourself so hard for all those years. There is a better way!  James Dobson, Men's Devotional Bible

CHRIST IS RISEN!

"Christ is risen. He is risen indeed.' These, our glad Easter responses, echo the angel: 'He has risen; He is not here' (Mark 16:6). Now everything is different, now we can be full of joy & hope, because, as St. Paul writes, 'Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.'" (1 Cor. 15:20) Gregory Lockwood, The Lutheran Witness, April 2020
