The Lord’s eyes are on the righteous and his ears are open to their prayers. But the Lord cannot tolerate those who do evil. ~ 1 Peter 3:12 (CEB)
Lord, I have mixed emotions about these passages. I feel good knowing that you do not tolerate evil and injustice. But I know that I'm not the most just and righteous person. If it weren't for the blood of Christ I wouldn't survive. But I guess that's the point. So then I beg you to purge all remaining traces of evil and injustice from my life. Give me a heart for the poor and the kind of faith that sees the world as you see it. Amen.
