OK, so seriously. What is the deal with: "She's not my wife, she's my sister?" First Abraham, now Isaac. Good grief.
Since we're on the topic of fairness, it seems to me the Psalms are all about fairness. That while people may be nasty or rich or deviant here on earth, they will not have a place in God's kingdom. So ignore them, stay on the path, embrace God. I think that's a pretty huge spiritual investment. You have to hold so hard to your faith that those insults and slights are only inconveniences, like a bug landing on your skin. (As opposed to the deep splinters that worry you constantly. That's what it is for me, anyway.)
Other people seemingly getting away with being crappy to others and being monetarily successful just seems to wrong. But today's Psalms were really reinforcing that none of this matters. I'll pray for guidance on this.
