God has given us a body and a soul. Life. But it is what we give God that is truly important. Remember the story Jesus told of the publican (an innkeeper, if I'm not mistaken) who went into the temple to pray. He thanked God for being so good to him, giving him all sorts of nice things, and for that he loved God all the more. Meanwhile, this drunk crawls into the back and falls on his face. "God be merciful to me, for I am a sinner." Jesus asked his disciples which prayer would God favor the more? It is what we give to God that is important, not what he gives us.

I am so greatful that God didn't not "do Justice" or "give me what I deserved" because I have not been a very good girl and if I had gotten what I deserved I would be punished horribly! My God gave me mercy and grace and I am so thankful for that. I have a pretty good life considering what I have done in my past. I don't pray for justice or what anyone deserves I pray for Grace and mercy. "When everything goes dead wrong, look and see if you are not facing in the wrong direction." (GV)

God gave me a lot of wonderful gifts. My two cats have been a wonderful part of my life. My wife is the most wonderful woman in the world and our home is not fancy but it suits us well.
I would say that God has given me far more than I deserve and I am thankful.
Take care,
Troy

God is a just God. He gives out the right justice to everyone in the end. However most people won't agree with Him. Everyone thinks that they are right when in the end they will discover that they were wrong.
