LIFE IS UNFAIR!

 

LIFE IS UNFAIR!

In LIFE=we don't always get

What we DESERVE=sometimes we get

Better=sometimes we get worse

And sometimes=we get TRAGEDY through

NO FAULT of our own=life really is

UNFAIR

But I think God is the 

GREAT EQUALIZER=he sees POSSIBILITIES

For us=for our lives=

When all looks lost

“You say='the LORD'S way is not fair'=

Hear now=house of Israel=

Is it my way

That is unfair=

Or rather-

Are NOT your ways UNFAIR?”                                                                           Ezekiel 18:25

Saint Paul tells the Romans=

“The wages of sin is death”                                                                                     Romans 6:23

And we ALL sin=so we are

SUBJECT to death=and we are all

Subject to experiencing

The anguish and LONELINESS 

The Lord's way is POSSIBILITIES

The Lord's way is FAIR=

Sometimes even MIRACLES

God is FAIR=God gives

A CHANCE=when life sometimes

CLOSES us out

“..............

For receiving instruction

To prudent behavior

DOING what is right=and just=

And FAIR”                                                                                                      Proverbs 1:3

“Masters provide yous slaves

With what is FAIR

Because you know

That you also have

A MASTER IN HEAVEN”                                                                                        Colossians 4:1

TRUST in the Lord=he will

DO what is right and FAIR 

For you

God is fair=

LIFE IS UNFAIR

In the gospel today  (Matthew 5:20-26)

Jesus tells us

That we are NOT

To FOLLOW the laws of God

Simply to keep laws

But if we don't it LEADS to

Spiritual sickness and death

So to get a FAIR LIFE

We must TRUST

In the WAYS OF GOD

And we must RELY

On the GRACE OF GOD

“When he arrived

And saw what

The GRACE of God

Had done

He was glad

And ENCOURAGED them all

To remain true

To the Lord

With ALL their hearts”                                                                                                   Acts 11:23

“Through him

We received GRACE and apostleship

To call all the GENTILES

To the obedience

That comes from FAITH

For his name's sake

And you also

Are among those Gentiles

Who are called

To BELONG to Jesus Christ”                                                                                     Romans 1:5-6

LIFE IS UNFAIR!

But if we STAY CLOSE to God

We will receive

A LIFE that is FAIR AND JUST

Maybe even MIRACLES!

In Jesus' name and the name of his DIVINE FATHER
