"Yet your people say, 'The way of the Lord is not just,' when it is their own way that is not just."(Ezekiel 33:17)
As a parent I have certainly heard more than once "that' not fair." When things don't go the way we want that is usually the first thing that comes to our mind, it is not fair.
Yet if we take the time to think about why something didn't go our way, or how we would have dealt with it if we were in charge, the fairness question seems to disintegrate.
Nobody likes disappointment and we certainly don't like to be punished. But the reality is that fairness and justice will always be in the eyes of the beholder. However there are occasions when we can see a better more just way to deal.
Blessings,
