Responding to Suffering with Questions
When life presses us, we've all asked the question, "Why?" We wonder: why me, why now, what did I do to deserve this, what purpose could this possibly serve, and how long will it last? Job had those exact same questions, and he posed them to God. As we study Job's questions this week, we'll see more of ourselves than we might expect, and we may learn a clue to the "why" behind our own suffering.
From Series: "Job: Uncertainty, Suffering, and a Sovereign God"
This Week's Message: God Sovereign in Relief
Relief. When suffering has ended and the weight is lifted. When times of sorrow are over. When the hope of a better tomorrow becomes today. At the conclusion of the book of Job, Job enters such a period of relief, but what can modern Christians learn from this part of the story? Will our troubles eventually fade away? Will we enter relief as well? Who decides? Do we play a role? This week, we'll look at God's sovereignty in relief and see that we have more in our future than even Job could imagine.
