truth of God > facts of life

Do you ever wonder why life seems to work out for some people and not for others? I have been thinking about this a lot lately as I have been in the midst of constant stress and struggle in life..and while I cry out to God and pray just to get through another day, I see the blessings pour into the lives of others. I see people who are going through life stress free and without any burdens to hold them down and then there is the other extreme-the people who are always going through one trial after another. As much as I love and trust God and know that He has a plan for everything that happens, it is sometimes hard for me to have peace in my heart about this. I have seen so much pain and struggle here..so many hurting and broken people who are desperately trying to find God and yet it seems like He doesn't show His face. He appears to be distant to some but so close to others who are blessed on a daily basis with more than they could ever need or want. Maybe my heart just isn't in the right place but this just doesn't seem fair. I am struggling to believe that this is just how life is--what a sad life it is if this were the case. A sad life for some and a blissfully ignorant life for others who have no idea of how others are struggling. I'm not sure how to reconcile with this and I definitely don't have all the answers. I guess all I can do is pray that God be glorified and honored in all we do regardless of what earthly circumstances we may endure.
