Testing

The Lord reminded me of his providence by bringing me a Christian gal to have a faith conversation with over lunch.  Little did I know I would need that to prepare me for some news I would receive later on in the day.  A family member was unjustly arrested.  Now, this isn't to imply that we are talking a class-A citizen here.  She has made 20 years worth of poor choices, and has always been bailed out in one sense or the other.  She has never felt the true weight of the repercussions of her decisions.  One could argue that you reap what you sow.  Yes, but still, my sense of injustice wants resolution.  How a person could be so vindictive as to stage a scene to send another person to jail is beyond my comprehension!  Yet, the conversation from earlier in the day played back in my head...."Do you see what happened when Sara didn't wait?"  Letting go and believing God to be God is hard.  He says vengeance is His.  So who am I to seethe with anger, knowing that grace has been applied to this person for 20 years? Who am I to fantasize about revenge?  The Lord reigns supreme.  He doesn't need my help.  If He wants me to act, He'll tell me.
