Daily Thoughts - Core Values: And Justice For All


It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice. (Psalm 112:5)



Justice has to be seen


Justice – the image of a law court, that statue of the woman with the weights is seen. Hope that the decision will likewise be balanced – mercy or reprimand where needed. The biblical idea of justice is about what is right. Justice then is not about favouring the majority or pleasing the powerful. Justice searches far deeper to what is right in each circumstance. Founded on love and truth justice goes to the heart of all those relational values – trust, honour and mutual respect. Right flows from these for the sake of healthy relationships.

For His Name’s Sake
