In today’s daily devotion with Pastor Balla, we meditate on Ecclesiastes 8:12–14, where Solomon wrestles with one of life’s deepest struggles: Why do the wicked prosper while the righteous suffer? This devotion—“The Apparent Injustice”—offers a biblical and confessional Lutheran perspective on the problem of evil. Though the injustice of this world seems overwhelming, Solomon affirms: “It will be well with those who fear God.” We are reminded that God’s justice may be delayed, but it is never denied.
Through the cross of Jesus Christ, we see that divine justice and mercy meet perfectly—the righteous One suffers for the unrighteous. In Him we find our ultimate assurance that, though wrong may flourish for a time, God will make all things right. Join Pastor Balla for a word of comfort and truth that strengthens our faith amid life’s unanswered questions.
