One phrase that has bugged me for some time is that’s not
fair. How does anyone know what fair is? In the last month I have been witness
to a lot of things that many would say is not fair from their own personal
point of view. However what we think is
not fair could very well be part of God’s plan and who are we to question His
plan; but many of us do. When we think we have it all figured out and it does
not go our way we think or say that’s not fair. But what we are really doing is
saying we are right and God is wrong and that my friend is a dangerous place to
be. Job was asked this very same question by none other than God when things did not go the way he
thought they should in Job 40: 6-8
Then the Lord answered
Job from the whirlwind: 7 “Brace yourself like a man,
because I have some questions for you, and you must answer them. “Will you discredit my justice and condemn me just to prove you are right?
because I have some questions for you, and you must answer them. “Will you discredit my justice and condemn me just to prove you are right?
Brace yourself like a man because I have
some questions for you. (If I heard that my first reaction would be this can’t
be good.) However when we think that something is not fair God probably looks
at us like a spoiled little kid in a store who is whining because they did not
get what they thought they needed when in reality the parent knows what’s best
for the child. God knows what’s best for
you talk to him about it.
We have the choice just above this comment box of marking "Poor", "FAIR", or "Good". 8-} Ironic?
ReplyDeleteI'll rate you "good" as far as content idea; keep improving your use of the English language.
