Equality

Psalms 94:14-15 For the LORD will not forsake his people; he will not abandon his heritage; for justice will return to the righteous, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

Growing old is  process that starts from birth, there is always someone older than you and someone younger than you. In the same way when we look at others we see that we all have our own kind of burdens to bear. We are all different and there is no real equality in anything, we would like to be all equal but we are only able to be equal, when all things are equal. Equality is a perception based on one’s own understanding of reality.


We may be equal in a court of law, but we cannot all afford justice because some people have more money than others. We may all be able to run but we are not all Olympic runners. In order to ensure equality there must be a higher authority, an authority that ensures that we will all be treated equally. This does not exist in the world of men, it is only God that has that supreme power and the ability to use that power for the good of all. It is God that levels the playing field and brings us to understand that when we worship Him, we become equal to others in that moment of worship. It is our relationship with God the Father that brings the equality amongst His children.


Be encouraged today to seek not equality with others, but to simply know that God is the great and only equaliser.


David


Point to ponder: It is God that makes us equal.


Question to consider: Do you strive to be equal to others?
