Why is life not fair?
Here's the answer:
Life is not fair because we live in a fallen world.
Some days are really hard. It just seems like nothing goes your way. On days like this, it can seem that life isn’t fair. Many people will treat you unfairly, but that’s not what God wanted. Due to the fallen world, things are unfair. People do what they want instead of following God’s plan.
God is always just and fair. He never has favorites (Romans 2:11). God wants us to act fairly with others even if they are not nice to us (Deuteronomy 25:15).
When bad people get what they want, it can seem like life is not fair. But we need to remember that the things of this life are temporary. In Heaven, we will have eternal happiness with God. Instead of focusing on unfair things, think about how much God has blessed you!
