Just scales

Many of us have been abstaining from the pleasures of this world in order to receive more from the Lord. Yet while we as believers abstain, the carnally minded, they indulge. It seems at times that the righteous are forsaken and the wicked are prospering. (But that all depends on the scale your grading things on.) The scale in which we (believers) judge and discern this world is just and perfect which is Jesus Christ. Therefore, thanks be unto God who always causes us to triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14) for this cause hope is not lost for us. Jesus can see our obedience and faithfulness. It doesn't go unnoticed to Him. The wicked will surely parish for all their ungodliness. While we may suffer for a moment Joy will surely  come in the morning.

Manna for thought: Deuteronomy 25:13-16

13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.14 Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small.15 But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.16 For all that do such things, and all that do unrighteously, are an abomination unto the Lord thy God.  

Don’t put your life on the same scale as an unbeliever, and compare where you are in your life to where they are in theirs. You will always come up short. Instead put your life in the just hands of the Lord and see that to Him you always measure up because your right where He will have you to be. In the safety of His arms.
