Job and the Problem of Suffering (Continued) - Job 15:1-35, 16:1-22, 17:1-16

"I have heard many things like these;

miserable comforters are you all!

I also could speak like you,

if you were in my place;

I could make fine speeches against you

and shake my head at you.

But my mouth would encourage you;

comfort from my lips would bring you relief."

Job to his friends, Job 16:2, 4-5

Do we really need to know why? When the better question is how? How can I help and be God for people looking for Him?

Lord knows.
