day no. 14,495: no earthly authority is absolute

Psalm 82
God is the Judge of judges. Just because you own a gavel doesn't mean that you get to invent new justices. Those in places of authority need to bear the weight of the responsibility that comes with the position. Those who use or abuse the position for personal gain will find themselves judged by the Judge of judges. The buck does not end with them. No earthly power is absolute. In other words, every earthly authority has an Authority. God is the Father of fathers, the Husband of husbands, the Master or masters, the Shepherd of shepherds, the Judge of judges, the King of kings, and the Lord of lords.
