Day 6: Job 10-13

Alright, I have temporarily abandoned the Message version of the Bible. I am just not a fan. I am actually using the New Living Translation on Biblegateway.com. Something different, yet not too different.

I wonder what it would be like to read the book of Job if it were not written as poetry? Sometimes I feel like I am missing the gist of the friend's advice in so many words. Same thing with Job's responses.

For as much as Job cries out to God that he wishes he was never born, he still has such a deep respect for who God is. He may not agree with His ways, but Job still bows the knee to Him. We can learn a lot from this.
