Would you ever compete in a team sport without a team? You against five basketball players. You against a row of people on a tug-of-war rope. You against eleven football players. Sounds ridiculous, right? But guess what? People try to do this all the time when they go through life, especially the hard times, alone. We were made to have a community around us and the power of God to hold us up.
If you've ever said to yourself, "I can't do this alone" . . . you are right! We're not meant to rely solely on our own strength, power, or intelligence. Everyone has something to bring to the table. Pursuing justice is just another part of following Jesus that is a team effort, and you want people on your team who put God first and who will encourage you to do the same. People tend to think true justice is always swift with no delays. If something is obviously wrong, should be a sprint to make it right . . . right? Well, not always. Without a community around you, the marathon of pursuing justice is not sustainable.
How can you rely on your community?

About this Plan
Have you ever been hurt so badly by someone that you desperately wanted revenge? When we’re treated unfairly, it’s natural to want justice. But what does “justice” really mean? Is it only about revenge? How do we balance forgiveness and grace with truth and consequences? In this 20-day devotional series from Grow Curriculum, we'll explore what God says about justice, and what we can do in the face of injustice.
