The Way #686:
All right: that person has behaved badly toward you. But haven't you behaved worse toward God?
I can't think of a single case in my life where this isn't true. Yet we (speaking only for myself) always want justice for ourselves before justice for God (or anyone else for that matter.)
I see this interest in justice for self in my kids too-but theirs is often (at least initially) more of a pure thirst for justice rather than merely self-interest.
Oremus pro invicem!
Our Lady of Joyful Hope-pray for us!
