While listening to Adrian Rogers "God is Not Fair" sermon today, he told the story of one of his friends who was "folliclely", challenged … bald. He combed his hair with a washcloth, had a crew cut and the crew bailed out. His friend had a saying, "God is good, God is fair, some get brains and some get hair." All joking aside he said humanly we demand fairness but God sees what is right. Matthew 20:1-15. Here are some truths: 1. It's always too soon to quit but never too late to start; 2. If you bargain with God, you will cheat yourself; 3. You will be very wise if you let God keep the books; 4. Don't look for fairness, ask for mercy; 5. Another's blessing is never your loss. "Don't drive a bargain with God. We're going to be much happier in this life if we take our eyes off of our brothers and sisters and put our eyes on the Lord Jesus Christ and be grateful for what He does."
Tomorrow the sermon title is "Paul’s prayer for you" found in sermon passage Ephesians 1:15-23.
