The Word of the Day: Faithfulness

Let all creation rejoice before the Lord, 
   for he comes,
   he comes to judge the earth.
He will judge the world in righteousness 
   and the peoples in his faithfulness.
Psalms 96:13 NIV

God is not like an earthly judge who can be swayed to interpret laws according to their political leanings. He has no confusion about what is right or what is wrong. He doesn't change his mind and he shows no favoritism. 

There is something that God alone can provide in his faithfulness and that is Jesus. In Christ Jesus not only is all justice met, but, mercy and grace are provided. If we are honest we all realize no one will be able to stand before God and claim righteousness in and of themselves. In his faithfulness he provided justice and mercy for you and me. Thank God for his faithfulness!
