As this Psalm proclaims that God establishes *justice*, I wonder about the ways that we may limit our thinking about what is just and right to our ideas.
Often, our criterion for fairness depends on whether or not we receive what we want (more so that what we think we might deserve). Yet, ours is a God whose very nature is Love. God's love defines and expresses justice.
I'm thankful that God doesn't give me what I know that I probably *deserve*. God always gives me - and you, too - so much more.
