Day 234 Bible Reading: Job 4-7, 1 Corinthians 14:1-25, Psalm 37:30-40 and Proverbs 21:27
The viewpoint of godly people will be prospered and will not suffer; this is a half-truth. God never promises His people not to suffer, but He promises them to overcome any suffering by living in the presence of the Kingdom. When people suffer, they communicate to God more than focusing on a list of problems, instead they ask for solutions. God wants us to have a father and son relationship with him; he cares about our feelings; we can express our feelings to him. Jesus showed his feelings to His father. (Hebrews 5:7) Jesus offered up prayers and petitions with loud cries and tears to the one who could save him from death. We are His sons and daughters; the heavenly father cares about our feelings. Express your feelings when you are in a difficult time.
"Therefore I will not restrain my mouth; I will speak in the anguish of my spirit; I will complain in the bitterness of my soul." - Job 7:11 (English Standard Version)
"Father Lord, thank you for being my father, you love me so much even I am not fully aware. I am not good at expressing my feeling. Help me to come to you and share our feelings, our thoughts, and our secret with you always. In Jesus name, Amen."
