How can you embrace God’s plan for justice in your life?

Are there ways you attempt to enact God’s justice that lack love?  If so, how can that change this week?

Do you internally bristle at the mention of this subject?  Why?  If the command is to love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you, how much more should you care for those with whom you simply disagree?

How can you reflect the righteousness of God and who can hold you accountable to do it this week?
