God Is Just
Perfecting the just
Hebrews 12 5-7
Read the Bible through:
AM - Isaiah 5-7 : PM - 1 Corinthians 16
But you have come ... to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect (Heb. 12:23).

How ironic that the number 911 we call for assistance in times of emergency has taken on new meaning. For the rest of our lives 9-11 will be a date that evokes many emotions.
For the rest of our lives, September 11 will be memorialized -another day that will go down in infamy. Evil met good that day. And the good has triumphed. Today the strongest images that come to mind are not the cruel terrorists who demolished the lives of thousands, but the brave firefighters, police officers, and emergency medical people who gave their lives attempting to rescue others.
The same has been true for believers down through the ages. Ultimately, God's way will triumph. O what a glorious day that will be. God has everything praiseworthy planned for "just men made perfect."
Lord, I thank You that our future is secure; and You will welcome us into Your everlasting presence.
