LOOKING FOR JUSTICE
“How long, O Lord, must I call for help, but you do not listen? Or cry out to you,
“Violence!” but you do not save? Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do
you tolerate wrong? Destruction and violence are before me; there is strife, and
conflict abounds. Therefore the law is paralyzed, and justice never prevails.
The wicked hem in the righteous, so that justice is perverted.” Habakkuk 1:2-4
