Job 14 - Frailty of Man

1 “A person who is born of a woman is short-lived
and is full of trouble.
2 He comes up like a flower; then he withers.
He is like a fleeting shadow; he doesn't stay long.
Job 14 - Frailty of Man

Reflection of B:

Job acknowledged the frailty of life and pleaded with God to let him die instead of suffering. Aren't we also tend to feel this way when our sufferings are too unbearable, both physically and emotionally (accused by friends or people close to us)?


Dear Lord,
Sometimes I also thought like Job thought when what I went through were too heavy for me. Yet You have always let me take on Your yoke and gave me rest. Praise You Lord.
In Your holy name I pray. Amen.
