Fair

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is a little like expecting the bull not to attack you because you are a vegetarian.

–       Dennis Wholey

We should understand that the world’s not fair. Does the Bible address this phenomenon? Glad you asked.

Job 5:7

“Yet man is born to trouble, as surely as sparks fly upward.”

Psalms 73:3

“For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.”

Ecclesiastes 9:11

“I have seen something else under the sun: The race is not to the swift or the battle to the strong, nor does food come to the wise or wealth to the brilliant or favor to the learned; but time and chance happen to them all.”

We have a problem here, Houston, so contact the Creator for a solution.

Give it some consideration.
