When Aslan Comes...

"Wrong will be made right, when Aslan comes in sight."

It's one of my favorite C.S. Lewis quotes from the Chronicles of Narnia 
and I know of no better way to talk about the justice of God.


I've heard folks talk about how what happens in this world is God's best.  Of course I believe He is a sovereign God masterfully weaving the tapestry tales of our lives.  And yet, there is a snag of injustice in this world.  



When everything that happens every day here on Earth is touted as God's best, folks can feel the injustice of it.  It bothers them.  It bothers me.  


We must look at things through the lens of Eternity.  In our broken, fallen, groaning world, evil people very often get away with their wiles.  Servants of the Lord have bad things happen to them.  


But, I find comfort remembering that we serve a just God. So many wrongs will be made right in the End.  His servants receive their reward and evil people who showed no remorse, no turning, 
receive their just recompense.  

Yes, wrong will be made right.

Visiting the Rabbit and the Dragonfly, a J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis themed book store and coffee shop was a jewel of a time in a recent weekend with my sister and my mom.  I'm so excited about my vintage World War I newspaper clippings and photographs book that I found there.  We'll be using it with our history curriculum this year.  I can't wait to visit again next year!  Maybe I'll get my own "Deep Magic from Beyond the Sea" espresso chocolate frappuchino, instead of stealing sips of my sister's.
