My Soul Would Choose Death


So that my soul would choose suffocation,
Death rather than my pains.

Job 7:15

Do you feel this way? Does death seem easier than life? Are you struggling with defeat? Does suicide feel like an easy way out? God understands. He allowed Job to go through difficulties that made him feel that way, but Job handled it in the right way. He was honest. He spoke his mind, and in all this, he trusted God. And, God heard him and delivered him, but it wasn't until Job had suffered much. God sometimes allows difficulties that we can't understand. Yet, He always makes a way for us to be victorious. Job spoke very strongly. He expressed his doubts to God, and God lovingly heard him. God wants to hear from us even when we don't understand... when we feel angry. God understands, and He will help us deal with even the most difficult situations.

Lord, thank You for always delivering us. Thank You for bearing with us even when we don't understand Your ways. Help us to trust unconditionally in Your love and care for us.
