My lyre is tuned to mourning,
and my pipe to the sound of wailing.
Poor Job. He has been through so much, and now he has lost his dignity along with his health. He can't see any good outcome. He has cried out to God, but he hasn't gotten relief.
It's tough to read Job's words. He can't understand how all this could have happened to him. He had everything, and he tried to be good and just, but he has lost it all. That's just awful, and I am glad I'm not Job. That being said, he surely knows how to express his pain well.
Prayer: I'm praying for all those in pain this evening. Some are physically hurt, and some have emotional trauma. Be with all of them, and guide Your people, including me, to be there for them. Help us to better serve You.
Amen
