God's justice is supreme. It is not dependent on external circumstances such as your job title, your employment history, your race, your creed, your religious history, or your vital statistics. It is a unique form of justice that relies only on the condition of your heart. If your heart is soft and malleable, God knows that regardless of the circumstances, he will be capable of remolding you into an image of spiritual perfection. The sharp edges of accidental sins and transgressions will easily be transformed into smooth, softened curves as you pursue continual repentance in his ocean of grace. However, if your heart is as hardened as stone, internal change and transformation will be virtually impossible to achieve. If God sought to bend you into an instrument of love and compassion, breakage would be the result. If he sought to transform you into a person of gratitude, you would instead be shattered. Unlike Satan, God does not use sledgehammers in the transformative process; he transforms by his love. If you are not receptive to his love, giving of love to others, easily malleable, and urgent to repent, you cannot be part of his Kingdom. If you are incapable of hearing his voice, of obeying his guidance, and are not open to changing direction when necessary to accomplish his purposes, you cannot be part of his Kingdom. If you are much more concerned with fulfilling your personal agenda than the agenda of his Kingdom, then of course, you cannot be part of his Kingdom.
