Day 125 – What can I even say, God?
Today’s Reading: Job 7 – 9
Job 9:19-21 “If it is a contest of strength, behold, he is mighty!If it is a matter of justice, who can summon him? Though I am in the right, my own mouth would condemn me;though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse. I am blameless; I regard not myself;I loathe my life.”
Have you ever been in that moment, that month, or maybe even that year? You find yourself in a period of life where you want to speak to God, but you don’t even know what to say?! You are flabbergasted, frustrated, feeling lost, and possibly alone. You know He’s there, You hope He’s there, Or maybe You wonder, is He even there?
Job was at this point. He was going through the worst time. He was walking through the valley and didn’t even have the slightest idea what to say. How could he, a man, even speak to God, he thought. God is so wise, so strong and not even human, how could he condemn Him, answer Him, or even summon Him. Job was so lost in his own misery he didn’t even realize the Truth he already knew….he could go to God anytime, and so can you and I.
Too often we find ourselves in the valley building up a wall of despair. These bricks get so dense, so wide and so tall that we can no longer see or even hear God. We have to take the sledgehammer of His truth that He has placed in our hearts and tear down that wall. We need to seek Him and we will find Him when we seek Him with all of our heart. He will never leave us or forsake us. Even a man after His own heart fell prey to this wall, but David sought the Lord and the Lord heard his pleas.
Psalm 28:1, 6 “To you, O Lord, I call;my rock, be not deaf to me,lest, if you be silent to me,I become like those who go down to the pit. Blessed be the Lord!For he has heard the voice of my pleas for mercy.”
Tell to The Lord whatever is on your heart, He’s ready to listen.
