In the end when God does speak, it is not the pious friends who are commended. God tells then they have been guilty of misrepresenting God. Only Job – only angry, defiant, doubting Job has been faithful.

The story of Job reminds us that God is not offended when we question. Indeed, if anything God is offended when we speak too glibly.

Make room in your heart for the angry, defiant and doubting questions. You may find God there as well.

Peggy Haymes
