Some of the best preachers I have known have been fired. Some of the worst continue to get great job after great job. Some of the hardest working people never get promoted or are given a raise and continually worry about their job security. Some of the laziest get extra benefits, more pay and never fear they’ll get let go. Some people never prepare or plan and yet everything works out for them, others do everything the right way, scrimp and save yet it the end it all falls apart. Some folks blow through opportunity after opportunity and yet still get another chance; while others never even get a bite at the apple.
It just doesn’t seem fair!
Life is hardly ever fair. It seems to take more than it gives. Rewards those that that don’t deserve, punishes those that do. Good people suffer. Wicked people prosper. Life seems more about luck than logic, favoritism more than faithfulness, chance more than choice
Life may be unfair but eternity won’t be
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
2nd Corinthians 5:10
God’s justice will be on full display when the end comes. There will be an answer for our actions or lack there of. We may be able to skate through life never facing the consequences of our actions but they will come to a head at the judgment seat of God. Don’t make the mistake of thinking God doesn’t see and know what you do, whether good or bad.
He sees, He knows and He will reward.
