April 21, 2012 – Micah 1-3

Let the Lord be witness against You (1:2).  That would be tough.  I am used to dealing with witnesses and I can tell you, they never remember everything 100%.  Plus, usually they have a bias that you can use to make them less credible.  Either way, if there is a witness against you, you are going to have a chance to wiggle, they will never be perfectly aware and able to recount everything.  (granted, that can work against you if you need a witness)  But, God does not forget and He will be the witness against you when the Judgment really matters.  Not only will He remember better than anyone else, He will remember better than you and even know your thoughts and motivations for your actions.  He will be a over abundant and perfectly accurate witness.  Really, sometimes that is the last thing we may want when we look back at our lives.  That is why the Grace that comes from forgiveness is so incredible and the Gift of Purgatory is so wonderful for those imperfections we have when this life ends.  Let us always live our lives knowing the witness at our final judgment will not be one we can influence, confuse, crack, or prove a lack of credibility.  The Witness will be Perfect, Accurate, and absolutely Correct in everything He says.  If that makes you a nervous, it is suppose to.
