We do not serve a pocket sized God. If we get anything from the book of Job it is that our God is BIG – and we can trust Him. Though Job’s friends comfort him at first (Job 2:11-13), they slowly turn from good, to the bad and the ugly. Too often (like Job’s friends) we have a karma attitude about bad things happening; that there is a deserved. Let’s not be miserable comforters (Job 16). We need to listen, to those who are suffering, and listen to the Holy Spirit. For, where do we find wisdom? We wisdom by trusting it in a great God. Just as Job recognized, God has a plan (Romans 8:28), and no matter how hard life is our redeemer lives (Job 19:25).
