In our history there are weights and measures. It’s in everything we are and in everything we do. Even a brief look at this topic online opens up a volume of information beyond the scope of anything I am educated to share aside from a topical framework.
What do we think of when looking at the title “weights and measures”? I can only guess at the varied answers. My thoughts were taken to the scales of justice. Ever really look at the symbols for justice? Often they are caricatures of a woman; blindfolded, who holds a set of scales in her left hand and a sword in the right hand.
Something in our world today is truly amiss. Our symbol for justice has been used to mock at our hearts. Yes, justice is blind but only to those who deserve it. The scales are tipped to rule in favor of those who have the best lawyers and lobbyists. The sword in the right hand has not been lifted yet.
It’s time to cry out and declare righteousness over our nation and over our lives! If we ourselves don’t offer prayers for this need who will?
Luke 18:7 (NIV) And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?
