Job and Noah
by Sister Har Yin, Teh from Kulim, Kedah
What is the difference between Job’s and Noah’s situation? Do you think the two of them would be able to get along if they were in the same team?
The speaker, Br. Geoff, at our EFCLT-Penang class challenged us to ponder on these questions.
Job was going through a lot of personal pain, but had no clue why he had to go through all those suffering. God was silent to him even when he lost his direction. On the other hand, God gave Noah a project with a clear objective and precise instructions. Noah was filled with purpose, energetically working in God’s service.
Should Noah look down on his team mate, Job, for his lack of enthusiasm ?
Oh how we need to be sensitive to those around us, especially when God has given us clear instructions for an exciting project. There may be team mates who are struggling with the Job-stage of their lives.
