This is why as I travel on this Q Train, I don't pray for justice, as I would then have to accept justice for me too. All I pray for is to get our country back, and let God deal with whatever justice would follow. As for me, I'm OUT of the justice business.
Justice comes in many flavors, and repentance is a big part of how that justice is distributed. Someone truly repentant, someone who truly regrets the actions that led them down a certain path or to make certain actions, often receives a different degree or form of justice than those who continue down that path with impunity.
When we believe and trust in Christ, the justice for our sins is executed on Him on the cross. That is WHY He had to die like he did. So that there was justice even for the sins of those who believe. Just another reason for us to be serious and contrite about our sins as Christians, because they are all placed on His perfect head. Justice and mercy simultaneously. God is good!
