Psalm
75:6,7
For
promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
Evelyn
came from Charity Hill, the most expensive section of town. She had always
received everything her heart desired, and she considered herself to be one of
the finest people she knew. Jane came from Cheesebox, the poor side of town, so
named because all the houses there looked like cardboard cheese boxes. She had
never had much of anything special, and felt she really didn't deserve better,
anyway. Both women worked for an ad agency that wanted a new production
designer. Evelyn knew she would do well in the position. To her dismay, Jane
did even better.
Things
don't always work so well in real life. The rich often get richer while the
poor sink lower. And yet, God has promised that in the end, justice will always
carry the day. God knows every heart and every situation. He will set all
things right, if we will only trust in His wisdom.
