Most people would have given up when he suffered bodily sores. Yikes! In my own experiences, and most recently, I am at a loss to find a way to work with /through the humiliation I have been subjected to by those who should have nurtured my soul. Every day I call out to God, show me what you want me to do. No answer. Then I think, maybe God did answer and I must be deaf! ?. I think if I keep reflecting on the readings and commentaries, God will give me an answer. Not like the one He gave Job tho’ ?. That I already experience when I walk about my neighbourhood or travel across the globe. I marvel and give thanks to God for the beauty all around me.

Heavenly Father, show me your great love and mercy, like you showed to your servant Job, altho’ I am not worthy, just say the word and my soul will be healed. Amen.

But reading these scriptures from Job, our financial affliction is just a “minuscule as compared to Job’s affliction. We thank you for your insights on today’s reading Julie. The more that we need to pray and ask our Lord God for His mercy, compassion and to completely trust in Him as in Jer. 29:11.

What a message! Thank you for all the wonderful reflections. Peace.

Thanks for the insight! Still a ways to go, but I will keep trying to just have faith and accept.
