Download Lesson: 6.21.26 Class Notes – Job 17-18

LOOK:

Hold on to hope when life seems dark. In Job 17, Job feels helpless and overwhelmed, yet he continues bringing his pain before God instead of walking away from Him. When circumstances seem bleak, keep talking to God honestly. Faith is not pretending everything is fine; it is continuing to seek God even when you don’t understand what He is doing.

Let truth shape your words.  Bildad speaks many true things about the fate of the wicked (Job 18), but he applies those truths incorrectly to Job. Even biblical truth can be harmful when used without wisdom, humility, and love. Before speaking to someone in pain, consider not only whether your words are true, but whether they are timely and compassionate.
