As Christians, what do we do with the fact that life doesn’t always feel fair?
As we continue to look at the letter to the Galatians, we pause in Paul’s account of his own story to think about whether God was fair to the people that Paul mistreated before he met Jesus. Why should a person who behaved so terribly become a leader in the Church while others (like Stephen) suffered for doing what was right? This raises thoughts and feelings that we experience in life too.
God in His wisdom has shown us in His word what to do when we are feeling that way. The stories of both Stephen and Paul demonstrate the same truth: God doesn’t treat all His children the same way, but He always treats all of them with perfect love and generous goodness. We discover a simple way of looking at our circumstances that helps us to see God’s perspective and to trust in His goodness.
God isn’t fair, He is good – and that’s a whole lot better than fair!
