Kindred,
Why is it that when someone does something bad, people
expect the Lord to strike that person down?
When the liar or abuser is not struck down by lightning,
then somehow it is due to the Lord’s negligence or somehow the liar had permanently
managed to get away with doing bad?
We see people all the time getting away with lies,
crimes, sins and abuse of power.
Are there really no consequences to lies, crimes, sins
and abuses of power?
Look in the mirror and inside yourself at the state of
your being and the state of your character.
Are you the person the Lord meant for you to be?
Look at society and the state of society.
Is it a place where your children can grow up safe
from harm and grow to be the person the Lord meant for them to be?
Even if certain people get away with doing harm and
committing crimes, these sinners cannot get away from who they are or their sins
that determine and define their character and their life.
And in death, these liars, criminals, sinners and
abusers, will have to face to Lord and Judgement, as we all do.
However long one lives, there is no escape from death;
and no one escape from Judgement.
