Episode 159: JOB Part 4 - How Transparent Are We Allowed to Be Before God?

The Autumn Miles Show

Can we really tell Him all we think? Does this sound like you: you’ve been putting up a face before your friends, pretending that things are better than they actually are. You’ve withheld telling your true feelings to others, out of fear for what they would think of you. You’re going through the motions of the day without really digging deep into the reality of what you’re experiencing. If you are doing this to those close to you, odds are, you may be doing this to God about what you’re really feeling, too. God will NEVER think less of you because you have feelings of anger, sadness, confusion, and other unpretty emotions – that is the human experience! Job was described to have not sinned while he LAMENTED before the Lord. David did the same thing in Psalms. Speaking truth is never a sin! God wants to hear your heart, believer. All of it.

Monologue: Autumn shares a story of how her son, Jude, simultaneously relieves and shocks her in the midst of a crazy season.

Message: After the break, Autumn dissects how Job’s lament is an example of God’s invitation to believers to expose every feeling before the Lord so He may comfort them.

Question: “Have you thought about teaching a course on how to research and study the Bible?"

Praise Report: A listener shares praise for God’s presence and closeness in her life, especially after her child was sexually abused.
