August 20: “Is it Fair?”

Genesis 45:1-15, Matthew 15: 10-28

This title is not aspirational, but descriptive. This is not who we should be, but it is often who we are. We claim to want fairness, or at least we want fairness in a way that benefits us. Fairness in our favor, we might say. Deep down, however, the truth is that we don’t really want fairness; we want mercy. At least that is what we want from God. At the same time, we want to deal fairly and be dealt with fairly as we live and work in the world.
