Changing Your Perspective

Have you ever felt that life is unfair? For those of us who are committed to following the will and ways of Jesus, it is easy to get frustrated when people who do not care about Him seem to do well in life. If you have ever felt that way, you are not alone. The writer of Psalm 73 goes through the list of how the wicked prosper, but when he recalled his time in God's presence it changed his perspective. When we too spend time with God and see things from His point of view, it changes our perspective completely. We may be jealous of nonbelievers now, but we won't be at judgement time. As the saying goes, "what difference does it make if you win the battle but lose the war?" Let us praise God for His presence in this life and His promise of the life to come. God is all we need even when life seems unfair! ~Psalm 73:3
