There are many times when i wonder, plead, ask for explanations, and seek to understand why i suffer and, why God will allow me to continue suffering . I have askedthese questions as faint, pain-filled moans, frustration, angry screams.
I tried to find solace and encouragement for my faith in the biblical story of Job. The suffering I am experiencing have driven me to meet Job in the pit of despair and to ask the following questions.
  • Why, God, why?
  • Is God punishment me?
  • Who hope in this suffering?
  • Did God answer Job?
I find it difficult to accept or understand what is happening to me. Many reading this will not understand what a human being of my nature is going through in life.
Many things are going on in my life right now that I reluctant posting on here because my stories are …
Just thinking. I could just be a android monkey. This life I live is not humans.

Suffering .... is a difficult topic.
I find Hope in Jesus Christ who shared in the suffering with us and he did that to show the unimaginable thing that we all know can't avoid. Death.
He defeated Death and promised that He will return.
This makes suffering somewhat bearable for me.
I find suffering to be the worst thing, worse than death.
I don't know why children suffer for example.
But have Hope in Jesus Christ.

God has not left us abandoned w/o any clue, He has given us many promises and as Isa 53:5-7 states 'For sure, the Lamb of God took ALL our diseases, pains and sorrows and by His stripes we are healed'. It does take faith and that comes by filling our minds with the Word. We are meant to be overcomers in Christ not victims. God has provided everything to supply all our needs and as it is written 'a mustard seed' size of faith can move mountains (obstacles). Charles Capps on 'Cure for Fear, Doubt and Unbelief' is a great listen, also F F Bosworth. Ask the Father for wisdom and He will deliver🙏.

Why assume it is God who is the cause of your problems?
God does not punish. His "punishment" is to leave people to live as they please. Humanity is well able to self-destruct.
If you know God, you will have hope in His promises. Jesus suffered more than anyone ever has and ever will, all for your salvation.
God's answer to Job was along the lines of "I'm God and you are not". But God heard Job's cry and came to speak to him. (Job 31:35). Only a few people in the Bible met God in this way. Job refused to curse God and was greatly blessed after the ordeal.

It's hard to be any more helpful as you don't say what your situation is. I can assure you that God is Love, does not show favouritism and wants to save all people. That includes you.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
