- A suicidal man jumps from a building to certain death but while falling he waves his arms to control his fall. A quadrapalegic man in another town sits in a wheel chair and he cannot wave to his daughter as she smiles toward him during her soccer game.
- A woman is in tears because the expensive invitro procedure did not take... again. Her dreams of having a child are still in question for another month. A woman at a planned parenthood in another town schedules her 8th abortion.
- A man leaves the urologist after receiving the news that he has such a low sperm count that he and his wife will need to adopt. A fertile man in another town has admitted he is homosexual.
- A child is amused by throwing all of her toys all over the playroom with reckless abandon. A refugee child on the other side of the world holds on for dear life to a tattered doll that is her only toy.
- A close and loving family gathers at the bedside of a cancer inflicted brother who is in his last hours of life. In another town 3 healthy siblings live just a few miles from one another but have not spoken in years due to a petty disagreement.
- A rich man does not answer his phone any longer for fear it is someone else claiming to be a friend who is asking for money. A middle class man in another town receives several calls a day from friends he knows genuinely care for his well being.
- A loving and involved father and fireman is killed while serving his community. A father in another town left his children for a new girlfriend and has not been seen in years.
- Let's establish the fact that God is in complete control. Let's also agree that God does everything for good. Then why would God let such apparent injustices occur? To the non-Christian or the new Christian it is just proof that God is not a benevolent father.
- The glaring contrasts above are actually proof of a fallen world, not an unjust God. Consider the following passage:
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,"
declares the LORD . "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
~ Isaiah 55:8-9
