The LORD works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed. — Psalm 103:6
We must understand that what is true in the short run can be, and often is, false in the long run.
For example, many people are eager to teach their children that life isn’t fair. This is a short term truth. Many times life isn’t fair. Horrible things are done to people for no good reason. This is not fair. It is not good. It is not right.
But I would like to suggest to you that life is fair because God will make it fair. There is no injustice that He will not make right.
How does He do this? I don’t know.
When will He do this? I don’t know.
All I know is no one will be able to look God in the eye and say that the life He gave was unfair, because God will make it right.
Be encouraged!
