The world needs justice, not revenge
Answer for the things you say
Pay for what you do
Put things right
Restorative
Peace for me and you
Forgive someone even seven times?
Peter is stretching it
Trying to understand the Lord
How much is enough of it?
Numbers do not matter
Attitude is all
The name of the game is mercy
Misericordia
Think of God and what he sees
The wickedness of men
Why he doesn’t destroy us all
Well beyond our ken
He does not let off lightly
The punishment is in the crime
You destroy yourself completely
You know it every time
Let goodness live within you
Suffering will come
But mercy will embrace you
Justice will be done

+ When terrible things are done, people need to be brought to justice, and victims need help to heal. We struggle not to do evil in return. Justice is the great call. Revenge is the destructive force. God preserve us from revenge, help us to cease fire, and heal us in his mercy.
