That Ain’t Fair

In Ecclesiastes 3:16–4:3, Solomon wrestles with the reality of injustice in the world. Corruption exists where justice should prevail, yet he reminds us that God will judge both the righteous and the wicked in His perfect timing. Though oppression and suffering may seem unchecked, we trust that God sees all and will bring ultimate justice. This passage challenges us to rest in God’s sovereignty, even when evil appears to prosper, knowing that His judgment is sure, and His timing is perfect. Our hope is not in this world but in the righteous Judge who will make all things right.
