Job 11 - Another Accuser

14 If you're holding on to sin, put it far away,
and don't let injustice live in your tent.
15 Then you will be able to show your face without being ashamed,
and you will be secure and unafraid.
Job 11:14-15 (GW)

Reflection of B:

Indeed, Job, would not expect his third friend, Zophar, to also join in to accuse him of sinning against God and reprimanded him for complaining to God.

I also have had such experience before, whereby people close to me could not understand me nor my sufferings and could only use scripture to 'fire' me.

On reflection, we need to learn to be more understanding and not be quick to judge anyone.


Dear Lord,
Forgive me if I may have been quick to judge anyone or accuse them wrongly, thinking I am right. Help me to speak words of encouragement and show love for those in distress instead.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
