JOB 17 & 18
Inspired thots
Job was suffering and expressed it through words to his friends; it is a common reaction from the sufferer but in reality, NO ONE really understands the FULL impact and feelings of the sufferer except the latter. Hence, when Job lamented on his sufferings, his friends could not empathize. They kept insisting that only the wicked suffer; hence, Job was wicked.
One can offer many TRUE words in a situation BUT the words may not be ACCURATE. God must be sought for the RIGHT answers for the situation. God is So amazing; who can understand HIM?
There is TRUTH in Job's friends' words of advice or understanding BUT it was not applicable to Job. Hence, the wise would seek God on the situation before speaking; whether for self or on behalf of another.
