Justice

Sometimes it's hard to do what you feel is right. It's also hard to do things when no one else steps in and takes his or her place at the bat.
Today I had an experience that really changed how I view things.
I had been stewing about a certain situation for a while now and was becoming extremely bothered.
I know life isn't fair but man I felt like I needed to do something about it.
I did.
I did something that was hard for me. I stepped up to the plate and tried to voice my own opinion and the opinion of others. I am so grateful I found the strength (and encouragement from my husband) to stand up for what I knew was right. I could not back down, that voice inside of me was speaking too strong.
Perhaps nothing will come of what I said but I know I did the right thing. I know that life is not fair but when I see people hurting because of unfair and unjust situations, I can not stand by and let it happen. Now I know I never will. I will always try to be that person that stands up and says what I'm feeling.
The Lord makes things fair in the end. I have to keep that in mind and I have to know things always work out. But by golly I will never just stand by and let life pass me by, especially when it isn't happening the right way.
