Giving Comfort

when he corrects me? what was i doing wrong?!!! mp, this wasnt correction or discipline. but you heal. and youre right. he will deliver me. yeah i think it would be hard to hear cause he doesnt know gods purpose in this so when hes speaking like he does it just reminds me of the hurt. but then im listening and i hear his heart and then i hear what hes really saying and it is comforting.
oh man job...what do i say to him? im afraid. what if what i say hurts him more. so nervous what cane i say. i have no idea what that all feels like. i dont know how to help. god! thats it. this is the god we know and he loves job. and he is god to job. yeah. now im excited to speak to him.
i dont think telling the truth is enough. it may not even be necessary. a comforter is just helpful in that. comfort. saying what needs to be heard. being loving. caring. that is whats important about a comforter. their heart. i think job needed a kick from eliphaz. not a hug. not im sorry. but hey! you are still here and god is still god. and he will be your god. i think job needed to be directed to seeing god for what he is. love.
hope is in thier heart. hope that they will have a turn for the better. hope that they wil get through it. love and hope that they will be picked up from those dumps.
peace
