Daily Bible - With Friends Like These...
Day Four is found in Job 22:1 to Job 25:6.
After Job defended himself to one friend, another picked up the fight. He even asked Job if he planned to continued in his evil ways and begged him to submit to God's plan for him. You can't see me now, but I'm shaking my head. The lesson for this story may be to consider what kind of a friend you are. When someone you profess to care about is hurting, what do you do? Is your comfort mixed with accusations and barbs that have no intent of helping the situation or at least providing some comfort? The next time you are in that situation, step back and evaluate your actions and words.
So Job pleaded his case to his friends...again...and one of his friends challenges his claim to righteousness...again.
