God is Just

"Look among the nations and watch- Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it were told to you." Habakkuk 1:5

Habakkuk had just complained to God about the evil surrounding him. He felt that God was ignoring it. But God had a plan- a long range plan for the saving of many lives! God used Babylon, an evil nation, to overcome Judah. Judah was becoming an ever increasingly evil nation as well. And the end result of Habakkuk's nation being overtaken by an even more evil nation was that Judah returned to the Lord!
When injustice happens, don't feel that God has turned a blind eye. Rather, look to see God's hand, His power, and His might! Remember that his ways our not our ways. He sees from a perspective that we do not have the ability to see. He is sovereign. He is just. And he is always working.
Even in evil, "God causes all things to work together for the Good of those who love God." Romans 8:28
