#soap # Job 13 ## Title: Talk to God More Than Others ## Scripture: (Job 13:3) “But I wish to speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.” (NET) ## Observation: It’s important to have friends and confidants. Everyone needs someone they can be honest with and say what’s on their heart. But, as much as you talk to your best friend, talk to God more. Tell the Lord everything you say to your friend and then keep going. Don’t leave anything out. Tell Him about the things you wouldn’t even say to your friends. There are multiple reasons for this. First of all, God already knows, so you are not surprising Him. Secondly, God doesn’t get offended. There are some things you cannot even say to your friends for fear they will think differently of you. Thirdly, your friends usually can’t do anything about your situation. God always can. ## Application: Talk to your friends. Talk to God more. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always providing a way for us to talk through prayer.
