Day 20

Read: Job 5:1 – 7:21

Reflect:

Job’s friend, Eliphaz, argues that suffering proves sin.
How does this contradict the reality of Job’s underserved pain, and how does it challenge our modern tendency to judge others’ suffering?

How do we distinguish between the “wise counsel” of friends and harmful judgement, especially when someone claims to speak for God?

Job cries out to God, even questioning Him.
What does this teach us about acceptable prayer during intense pain, and how can we be honest with God without losing hope?
