Psalm 75:7
How do we respond to injustice? Dinah’s story is a heartbreaking reminder of the pain caused by human sin. The violence against her and the revenge taken by her brothers led to greater suffering, showing the destructive cycle of vengeance. Psalm 75:7 reminds us that God is the ultimate judge, lifting up the righteous and bringing down the wicked. When we face wrongs, it’s tempting to take matters into our own hands, but true justice belongs to God. Trusting Him allows us to break free from the cycle of revenge and seek restoration. While we live in a broken world, we can cling to the hope that God will one day make all things right.
