A bitter sour taste


Had another case today. For various reasons, it was settled without going for trial. But...it leaves me with a bitter sour taste.

Can't go into the details.. but suffice to say, I feel that justice was not quite done in the case. And a part of me wonders whether I could have done more to ensure that justice was done.

Argh! Lawyers are to be advocates of justice...Christian lawyers must definitely advocate justice...but sometimes, the reality of the imperfect world and imperfect systems makes it tough to achieve justice in every case.

And I wonder...what can I do? What should I do? What could I have done? etc........ :(
But, no matter what...one thing is certain, God will eventually judge everyone on earth...and justice will definitely be achieved.

Hebrews 9:27-28
27Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
