The Law of Sowing and Reaping does not explain everything in this life. I know people who are reaping things they did not sow. The suffering of not knowing why bad things happen to them fills them with frustration and that horrible feeling that God has forgotten them.
This is called INJUSTICE, and the good news is that God also has a solution for it. He is your advocate, and that means that even though pain comes into your life in an inexplicable way, as it did to Job, in the end, He will raise a banner in your favor (Isaiah 59:19). Job’s three friends churned through all hypotheses and assumptions trying to explain where Job’s fault lay, but that was not it. It was injustice, and the only way out was to wait.
In the midst of that waiting, it’s normal to lose patience, to complain to God about His silence, and to give up. But that’s where the voice of the Father comes in, lifting you from your mourning and saying to you as He said to Jerusalem: “Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me” (Isaiah 49:15-16 NIV).
This word is for you today: Even though you have not finished reading the book of your life, He finished writing it a long time ago. And it’s not just any ending, it goes like this: “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. He who was seated on the throne said, ‘I am making everything new!’ Then he said, ‘Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.’ He said to me: ‘It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children’” (Revelation 21:4-7 NIV).
