JustifiedSample

You know the Marvel superhero Daredevil? He's the guy who is a lawyer during the day, but works as a superhero by night. As a lawyer, he started to feel like maybe the law didn't work as hard or fast as it should have to put bad guys away, so he started taking matters into his own hands.
It's easy to sympathize with Daredevil. He wants to see justice served, especially when people are getting away with doing wrong. In our world, it does seem like justice isn't always as fast or as accurate as we'd like it to be. We want to see people held accountable for doing wrong, but all too often, they get away with it. When that happens, it's easy to start hating them.
These feelings are normal. But when we're feeling angry about the injustice in the world, it can be helpful to remember that God's angry about injustice too. And instead of calling us to take matters into our own hands like Daredevil, the Bible calls us to trust in God's perfect timing.
Instead of trusting in your own sense of right and wrong, we can be sure that God has an ultimate plan for all the injustice in the world. And we can rest assured that our part in that plan is simple — trust God.
Scripture
About this Plan

For the next four weeks, we’ll explore four passages of Scripture from both the Old and New Testaments that might challenge our view on anger. We’ll learn practical skills like when we feel angry, pause to ask God why. We’ll see how, when we’re angry, Jesus shows us how to respond. And in our anger, we'll be challenged to show grace and not get hurtful.
