I think that you are so right: In the long view, over the big picture, if we do what is right we will be fine. But the challenging thing is that sometimes the only positive things that right decisions do is make us fine with God; sometimes the view we have to take is so long it has to include the next life. I am not seeking to diminish the value of being in a good standing with God, or eternity itself. But when we do the right thing (As Joseph, Job, and Jesus did) sometimes our earthly circumstances get suckier. Thanks for these thoughts Steve.
