DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life. – COLOSSIANS 3 : 13, ISAIAH 61 : 10, EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8, ROMANS 5 : 5

“DO NOT EXPECT to be treated fairly in this life. People will say and do hurtful things to you, things that you don’t deserve. When someone mistreats you, try to view it as an opportunity to grow in grace. See how quickly you can forgive the one who has wounded you. Don’t be concerned about setting the record straight. Instead of obsessing about other people’s opinions of you, keep your focus on GOD. Ultimately, it is GOD’S view of you that counts. As you concentrate on relating to GOD, remember that The LORD has clothed you in HIS righteousness and holiness. The LORD sees you attired in these radiant garments, which The LORD, JESUS CHRIST bought for you with HIS blood. This also is not fair; it is a pure gift. When others treat you unfairly, remember that GOD’S ways with you are much better than fair. GOD’S ways are Peace and Love, which The LORD has poured out into your heart by HIS Holy Spirit.”

Scripture

Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. COLOSSIANS 3 : 13

I delight greatly in the LORD; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. ISAIAH 61 : 10

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. EPHESIANS 1 : 7 – 8

And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. ROMANS 5 : 5

Prayer

Prayer: Lord when I am treated unfairly, help me to see it as an opportunity to grow in grace. And to remember how unfair you were treated on the cross. You did that for me. Thank you Jesus. I am eternally grateful. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
