“God is easy to live with,” Tozer also said. He is not only perfect in holiness (He must deal with sin as it comes) but also flawless in kindness. If He were a man you related to, you would find Him always doing the right, gracious, benevolent thing. You would be stunned by His interest in you; awed by His acts of kindness.

We can put our confidence in Him that any needed justice will be done in due time. We can rest there. Our call to never take our own revenge is a faith step, as we take the issue from our courtroom and transfer it, in faith, to the courtroom of heaven (see Romans 12:17-21).
