Life is unfair (3)

Perhaps this’s my last entry on this subject

I don’t know how to explain or put it in a clear and sober way… However the accounts of 3 people I read lately have opened my eyes.

One is a man who’s struck by cancer and was dying of the disease, severely disfigured. Yet together with his wife, they pull through all the odds and testifies that love never fails. At the highest point of their suffering, they saw the love of God expresed through Jesus that surpass their sufferings. Life may be unfair to them, but they showed me that there’re more to live than a pleasant live we all dream of. Because He who loves us so much that we could say His love is better than life itself.

Second is from a young woman who’s struck by another disease. It’s as if life is unfair. That a young woman should be denied a normal and good life by such disease. Where’s God under such situation? Yet she experienced what the couple on top experienced. That in the midst of suffering, God is ever real. His presence is closer than before and His love sweeter than ever. Even disease doesn’t hold the love of God in Jesus Christ.

And the third is another young woman who’s severely persecuted. Her faith shone extremely bright that touched and changed her persecutors. Where’s God when such bad and cruel thing should happened? God is God that through His children He shows the world even the worst of life (be it persecution, disease, and death) can’t triumph over His love.

Can i say that llife is unfair then? Those people would surely stand to oppose me. Because the “ugliness” of life that they’ve experienced, they grow to know the intense of God’s love even more. Would they say that life has been unfair? Yes for the better side! And perhaps from life’s own perspective, we’re the foolish creatures, because we see life only one sided. For life is both the good times and the bad times. It’s really foolish to think that life only good times and therefore bad times shouldn’t be at all there. Life is fair because it has both the good times and bad times.  And the bad times that actually make people.

tired of thinking…..now is doing my part to make the best use of each times in life…good and bad.
