Job and the Mystery of Suffering
Job and the Mystery of Suffering: Spiritual Reflections | Richard Rohr
2 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
Richard Rohr, internationally known retreat leader, speaker and writer, plumbs the depths of the Job's story and its relevance for us today. Rohr strips Christian faith down to the essentials, beyond glib answers and a "hand-me-down" experience of God, and points the way to true knowing. In this invigorating exploration, the tension between suffering and faith becomes a powerful means to an authentic, open connection with the divine.

“Many who are working among the suffering…thought they were going as the benefactors but they invariably found themselves being helped and liberated themselves.”

(Just one of the insights from this book that resonates with me. This little book is one of my favorites as well as the book of Job in the Bible is my favorite.)

I‘m in a spiritual awakening. It all started with a book which I feel was God-chosen, and that is continuing to happen. This book was very special to me. It was a gift, a message that I am on the right track in the direction of my growth. It was an informative study of Job, my favorite. It gave me a new perspective of God and this mystery. Be open to change to find your True Self. Maybe, find that book you need.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
