Many people often assume that
questioning God shows direct defiance to the authority of God. Job consistently
questions God throughout, yet never displays a lack of fear or respect to God. Although
Job is constantly attacked by his peers for questioning God, he constantly
reaffirms his faith and fear of God. Job shows fellow Christians that there is
a difference between questioning God and disobeying Him. I think it’s a fine
lesson to be learned. While there is certainly a very fine balance to be
upheld, careful questioning proves as a means of further growth and development
in a walk with Christ. Just as a student prompts his or her instructor in order
to gain more wisdom, so too should a Christian approach God with similar intentions.
