Whether it's portion sizes or toys or turns, we recognize the idea of what should be and how life isn't what it should be before we realize many other truths of the world. Some of us never grow out of it. We get hurt and then sit and wait for someone to come back and make it right. We lose a chance, and we give up because it wasn't fair. Before you know it, life is over and "fair" never showed up to the party. This week, Pastor Ben Hightower takes us through the stories of two sisters who spent their entire lives waiting on fair and shows us what happens when you spend your life in the pursuit of "fair". |
