JOB 3
Inspired thots
Job opens his mouth to lament on his sufferings; while it is good to express oneself to gain some emotional relief, it opens up one to other arrows of offense. Job's friends start to 'advise' and imply other aspects of his sufferings but all Job's lamenting was his agony in his current situation.
He acknowledges God is with him even in the misery as 'light' is given. He understood that God has HEDGED him in although he does not know why he is given to suffer (v23). But one of Job's weakness in his righteousness is that he Feared! (v25) And fear and dread gave a step into Job's life for trouble.
If Christians believe they are 'hedged in' by God's loving hands, there is no fear as our God protects and blesses.
