As I prepared late Monday night and read through the articles on-line, I was mad. The more I read, the more angry I became. It just doesn't seem right that a killer gets to live but a young mother dies. There was a part of me that cried for justice and vengeance even as I was reading Scripture to those in attendance.
Then I wondered if I have the same sense of justice and vengeance for my own mistakes. Am I quick to scream justice when I have wronged someone? Do I cry for vengeance when I have hurt someone? I know it sounds simplistic, but I am just as guilty in God's eyes. Judgement day is coming for everyone. Fortunately for me and for all believers, judgement day happened on the cross. It was a nice reminder of me to bask and to share that forgiveness and grace with others, even a murderer.
