Job 15 - Does God Need A Defender?
12 Why have your emotions carried you away?
Why do your eyes flash
13 when you turn against God
and spit these words out of your mouth?
Job 15:12-13 (GW)
Reflection of B:
Job's friend, Eliphaz 'defended' God by accusing Job for sining against God when he opened his heart and told God how he felt. What is worse than for a friend to add salt to our wound. We need to refrain from doing this ourselves too.
Dear Lord,
Thank You for showing how hurtful it can be if instead of consoling, we accuse the one who is in distress. I pray that You will give me compassion and love instead.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
