The wise man said: God created all men to succeed in life. Talents of God-given different to everyone. Have limitations is not the end of it all, but the beginning of a power of God. But In real life, There are many people who constantly regretting their limitations. They consider that the limitations and weaknesses is destiny from God that made them will never be successful. "I was not as fortunate as they are .. I can not anything .."
Read advice of the wise man and see reality of life, made me think, What is God unjust, on the one hand gives a person a lot of features but on the other side gives something not perfect?

I think God is just, whatever God gives us anything if we are pray and try to live in this life. We don't do anything if we don't do our best, and god will not help directly. Humans must be tested their patience in taking the obstacles in its path. People will not succeed without trying, and we are taught to pray before. That's life, full of temptations and obstacles.

Fortune and luck...we tend to create much of that, good or bad, for ourselves by the choices we do or do not make.
God is always just. For instance, if a lazy person moans that God is unjust because there is not enough food...that is not God's doing, but the doing of the lazy.
Sometimes, if we earn something bad in life, that IS justice, is it not? Just as when we seek good and work hard we will make our own good fortune.
God gives talents and opportunities, but he also gives us free will to pursue those and use them wisely...or not.

please face it, there's no justice in "you have a choice whether to believe or not, but if you don't believe you'll be tortured forever, "especially when, as some Christians believe, God chooses who will hear the message. no real ultimate power in the universe would offer a non-choice like that. it could only come from a church trying to scare people into conforming to church rules.

God is not unjust, mankind needs to deal with the hands that were given to them. People always focus on the negative side of things. God blesses everyone, not just rich people. Many people think that God does not exist simply because they feel like they have gotten screwed over something or someone. Remember, heaven helps those who help themselves. Everyone came from Adam and Eve. Anyone who begat success after them is because they worked for it, or they took advantage of other people to get successful.But will there be any successful sinners, thieves, robbers? No, because ALL will stand before God.
