Life Can Seem So Unfair and Hard to Hang On To....

Know each one reading this has been there done that more times than you or I can count....Life just isn't fair! Its a fact! So why do we keep expecting it to be? The million dollar question. Who knows what lies behind all the deciding of who gets what and who doesn't? I don't, do you? Personally I am going through another "gosh this isn't fair time" in my life, you'd think I'd learn by now but no I haven't....One thing that is helping though is to remind myself that "this life isn't fair, it isn't permanent either though..." That seems to help alleviate some of the discomfort and pain that have caused this question to rise once more...Sin took away the "fairness" of our lives past, current and future, it is what it is. Yes, sometimes it seems to grossly unfair that some of us get slammed again and again inspite of our efforts to rise above such things. Again it is what it is... We must NOT get too distracted by all of this, think about 100 years from now, will these things be remembered? Will people even remember who you were? Probably not, put it in perspective. Yes, its a problem here and now but it will pass either of its own accord or by anothers fixing of it. Then it will be forgotten. HOW we handle and deal with this situation though will NOT be forgotten. We will personally reap the reward or punishment of our handling of these little annoying/painful/unfair etc situations. The way we handle them will follow us into eternity. Think in that! Also think in this, LIFE IS SHORT, eternity is FOREVER!!!! If we can but endure and suffer our way through if that is the lot we were dealt then the reward will be beyond words! I often comfort myself with these thoughts. The REWARD if we but persevere will be immense and so overwhelmingly good! All of our sufferings will be as naught. We MUST finish the race! Arise oh friend/brother/sister of mine and let us run together, encouraging each other till at long last we receive our deserved reward! No more unfairness or pain, only joy, happiness, and peace that cannot be found here.

Happy thoughts to you!
