Most of us want an answer to our suffering. Job never got one. What he got was God. Would that be enough for you?

In this letter

- Why the desire for meaning is human, not weakness

- What God actually gave Job — presence, not explanation

- Seeing as different from understanding

- The friends as a warning — how not to comfort the suffering

- Why God rebuked the theology-defenders

- The honest question — where are you demanding answers when God is offering His presence?

Scripture — Job 42:5-7

The question to sit with

Where have you been demanding answers, when God has been offering His presence?
