What do we do when our worst fears become reality? One of the oldest tales in human history, journey with Job as he laments, grieves, complains, rages, and ultimately finds peace with God. Ancient yet timely, this tale profoundly resonates for our current day as we cope with life during a global pandemic.

“What is man that you make so much of him? That you give him so much attention, that you examine him every morning, and test him every moment? Will you never look away from me, or let me alone for an instant? If I have sinned, what have I done to you, O watcher of men?

Job 7:17-20

The Psalms are a natural place to experience contemplative prayer. The psalmist has a posture of confidence, reverence, and total surrender before the Lord, punctuated by silence (selah). Can we allow the text to read us? What is revealed in the silence?

In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.

Psalm 4:8 NLT
