ANW's Savory Sunday

How do you respond to injustice(s)?

It takes a great deal of self-preservation and restraint to not retaliate at those who create and cause injustice(s), and then want to make "a spectacle [of you] to the whole universe" (1 Corinthians 4:9) for doing good.

Being "made a spectacle" (4:9) came when trying to create a healthy work environment within Nursing Academia. Fortunately, "when...hurled [with] insults" (1 Peter 2:23) aka incivility, [I] did not retaliate" or make "threats"; but "entrusted" The Lord to "[judge] justly" (2:23), just like Jesus did when he suffered.

So, when faced with injustice(s) and you find yourself wanting to retaliate against others who "[make] a spectacle" (4:9) of you, might you remember that He will "[judge] justly" (2:23).
