Sermon 62, Job 16:1-9
”And if God sends us such difficult trials that we are at our wits’ end and can bear no more, well, let us realize that it is not something new for us, since we are not the first”.
I am not different to anybody else. My mind and body work the same way as everybody else’s. Any emphasis on being unique is misplaced and weakening. That is, I think, the message of scripture. Many of the great stories given are to encourage us in the way of “oh, the same thing that is happening to me happened to (insert Biblical character here)”.
