Evening: Psalm 107:1-32; Luke 18:1-8
When a judge is found guilty of wrongdoing, you may be shocked at first but you are not completely surprised. All people are susceptible to human foibles and shortcomings, whatever their position. You may hope for better, but you should be prepared to be let down. So if even one of these less than perfect mortals finally succumbs to the perseverance of a widow seeking justice, Jesus says, imagine how true justice will behave. Since a tendency towards equilibrium is written into the fabric of the cosmos, we can expect real justice in the end. Until then, we persevere.
