2 | what's your preference | Heb 12:6 | Searcher56 | 202726 | ||
God's day to you my sister Azure, I think about Job. I believe he was able to endure the afflictions in the first two chapters well ... he said, "We indeed accept good from God and not accept adversity" (2:10). I think when his friends started to talk, he thought God wasn't around, which I believe as tougher. David could not bear not being in fellowship with his Lord. Psalm 51 is oe example. Growing up I rather have correction or redirection from my parents, than them not being around. Some friends wanted to be in mu shoes, because their parents weren't around ... or worse didn't care. I rather have afflictions by His hand of love than not sensing His presence. S |

Dear Brother Steve, Thank you for the fine answer. I think so, too. The 2 examples are what I have had in mind as well. I believe it is the ultimate pain of Jesus (Mark 15:34) to experience the "absence" from His Father. Shalom Azure |
