Do we know that God is a God of love AND of justice? Of compassion AND of holiness? Our images of God are snapshots. They guide us, but inevitably also distort our unapproachable God. They are necessary for us, but provisional and incomplete. Today's passages features words like judgement, justice, and righteousness. If we're scarred by a judgemental image of God, these terms may be off-putting. In Psalm 96, God is a judge. For the psalmist this is cause for rejoicing: God is concerned with justice. For those who suffer injustice, this is good news.
