Where are you when the right words come together?

Job Chapter 5: Eliphaz continues speaking.

"Do not take God's punishment lightly."

"God strikes, but heals."

Suffering has meaning.

In the end, it will recover.

He said this to Job.

Job is in the words of men.

He has lost everything, and his body is also injured.

Nevertheless, the right words continue to be spoken.

Job, who was called "my servant," responded to God's words.

I am now caught between God's words and human explanations.

Those who were supposed to be in God's voice are wavering in the words of men.

It has meaning.

It's not a waste.

It will get better eventually.

Those words aren't necessarily wrong.

However, things start to go wrong somewhere along the way.

The right words don't resonate with who I am right now.

People seek reasons and tend to dwell on explanations.

Because I think it will give me peace of mind.

The more explanations are added, the further we move away from God's message.

This cannot remain merely a story.

Job, who had remained confined to the narrative, is beginning to waver.

I'm starting to drift away from the narrative.

The same thing

What's happening inside people right now.

 朝の光の中で、言葉と向き合う時間。

When the right words are repeated,

Where are you?

Is it just going to be limited to explanations from other people?

Or are we turning back to God, to a place where awareness arises?
