When we look back, we will find the meaning
Quote: “I may not understand God’s big plan, but I can be sure that He has never been absent from history. So I know that no matter how bad things can still get, when we get to the future and look back, we will find the meaning.”

Justice.... eventually
Here are three recent articles about the lack of justice in various parts of the world such as Honduras and Egypt... and what God is doing, both now behind the scenes, and (see quote from Psalm 10) what He is going to do in a big, final, way some day. If you only have time to read one article, read the first one.

Do not forget the afflicted.Why has the wicked spurned God?
He has said to himself, “You will not require it.”You have seen it, for You have beheld mischief and vexation to take it into Your hand.
The unfortunate commits himself to You;
You have been the helper of the orphan.Break the arm of the wicked and the evildoer,
Seek out his wickedness until You find none.The Lord is King forever and ever;
Nations have perished from His land.O Lord, You have heard the desire of the humble;
You will strengthen their heart, You will incline Your earTo vindicate the orphan and the oppressed,
So that man who is of the earth will no longer cause terror."
