How do you have redemption without forgiveness? Is it even possible? God doesn’t leave us with no outlet for the internal cry of injustice in the face of being wronged. But it’s not retribution. We can leave that justice to the Lord himself. Instead, it’s a path to redemption, both for our own sinful hearts, […]
