Job 30 - Be Honest With God

15 Jul 07

20 “I call to you for help,
but you don't answer me.
I stand up, but you just look at me.
Job 30:20 (GW)

31 So my lyre is used for mourning
and my flute for loud weeping.
Job 30:31 (GW)

Reflection of B:

As Job went through his sufferings and wondered if God was still with him. He honestly question God.

That will be true for us too if we were to suffer like Job did. We may wonder and become doubtful at times. That's just being human and natural. Thank God that He is One whom we can be honest about our feelings.


Dear Lord,
It's nothing wrong in being honest with You about our sufferings and doubts. You know how we feel even before we utter any words. Thank You that we don't have to be 'tough' before You but be ourselves. For You despise us not.
Thank You in Jesus' name. Amen.
