But he replied to one of them, “Friend, I am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for a denarius? Take what belongs to you, and go; I choose to give to this last as I give you.

  12. JUSTICE & FAIRNESS • There is a difference between fairness and justice. The question of fairness is really based upon self interest. When we insist upon our rights without regard to the needs of others, we become narcissistic. • The question of justice, however, is based upon the needs of others. When we focus upon the needs of others, even if they encroach upon our rights, we sacrifice ourselves for the Kingdom, just as Jesus did. Company Logo

Behold, like the clay in the potter’s hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel. (Jeremiah 18:6) Company Logo
