Soul Snack 204/11 ... Smokin' justice

Jesus promises to the lost, the least, the last and the lonely -

Jesus' pledge to the despairing, the desperate, the debilitated and the downtrodden -

Jesus' pact with the rejected, the refused, the rebuffed and the renounced is -

A bruised reed he will not break,
   and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out,
till he leads justice to victory. (Matt 12:20)

Jesus knows when you will snap, He sees the blackness of all your bruises and He feels the haematoma swelling on your spirit -

Jesus sniffs your flickering column of smoke and He has witnessed the injustice that brought you to breaking point, but no malevolence of man will He permit to take you past breaking point.

Jesus will sustain you until He has re-established justice for you.

No injustice of man can ever over-rule the justice of God.
