Digging Deeper: Jesus is the Judge
“Even now the ax of God’s judgment is poised…”
Luke 3:9 (NLT)
JESUS IS THE JUDGE
Judgment can feel like a harsh word, especially when life already feels fragile. Last year helped me see that God’s judgment is not about condemnation—it is about clarity.
Trees are judged by fruit, not intention or appearance. Scripture tells us that judgment has been entrusted to Jesus, not as cruelty, but as righteousness.
In God’s hands, judgment becomes an act of mercy.
Consider: What might God be pruning—not to punish, but to bring life?
