Life isn't fair...

If life were fair...
children wouldn't suffer for the sins of their parents... or be the target of those sins

If life were fair...
men, women and children would be free from abuse and misuse by those who have power over them

If life were fair...
people would die peacefully in their sleep from old age rather than from accident, disease or the acts of a fellow human being

If life were fair...

society would care for the hurting and helpless rather than throwing them away

If life were fair...
there wouldn't *be* any hurting or helpless

If life were fair...
justice truly would be swift, sure and the people who commit crimes would actually pay for them

If life were fair...
people would turn to Jesus and the cross rather than sex, drugs, booze and violence

If life were fair...
we would all be on that cross instead of Jesus

Life isn't fair...
but we serve the Great Physician who has an answer to all of life's unfairness - He took it all upon Himself and said, "I forgive you."
