Prisoner: "Do you work tomorrow?"
Me: "That's not shared information."
Prisoner: "I hope you don't work ...I can't stand you!"
Me: (Silence ....professionally, I choose not to respond.)
Prisoner: "But, I have to admit you are fair."
*****************************************
What this tells me, is that many people who are unsatisfied are not wanting to be treated equally ...they want to be treated better. In the case of the prisoner, they were used to getting away with things they shouldn't be doing. They didn't want to pay the price for what they did.
Neither do I.
Great news though ...Jesus died to pay the price for us.
What is our part?
Well, we are expected to attempt at correct behavior, and follow the guidelines for life that he has set up for us. And we shouldn't look to get away with things ...nor think little of the times that we do.
Jesus took care of our fare ...and we should get on board.
