In those difficult moments when we doubt, when we suffer or are afraid, let us approach God seeking the comfort and answers we need, he is attentive to our prayer and our needs to respond.
Behold, though he kill me, I will hope in him;
Nevertheless, I will defend my ways before him,
And he himself will be my salvation,
For the wicked will not enter into his presence.
Listen carefully to my reasoning,
And my declaration enter your ears.
Behold now, if I set forth my cause,
I know I will be justified.
Who is it that will contend with me?
Because if I kept quiet now, he would die.
Don't do at least two things with me;
Then I will not hide from your face:
Take your hand away from me,
And I am not surprised by your terror.
He calls then, and I will answer;
Or I will speak, and you answer me.
How many iniquities and sins do I have?
Make me understand my transgression and my sin.
Why do you hide your face,
And tell me about your enemy?
Should you break the snatched leaf,
And do you have to chase a dry straw?
Job 13:15-25
If we have any kind of doubt in approaching God even when we have a lot of doubt, we have the life of Job as an answer to this, in one part we read that it says: "Even if he kills me, I will wait for him" Job shows us his decision to wait on God fully confident no matter what happens in the future, even at the time when he was struggling trying to understand the reason why he suffered, here we understand that both hope and Doubt are clear expressions. of Faith.
As we know that our Lord is the only one who can answer us, I wanted to present and raise his questions and later we see from chapter 38 that God responded and in this way humiliated and left Job overwhelmed.
I know that you can do everything,
And there is no thought that hides from you.
Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?
Therefore, I spoke what I did not understand;
Things too wonderful for me, which I did not understand.
Hear, I pray thee, and I will speak;
I will ask you, and you will teach me.
I had heard you by hearsay;
But now my eyes see you.
Therefore I hate myself,
And I repent in dust and ashes.
Job 42:2-6
Remember that in times of suffering questions also arise with God, such as: what have I done wrong? Why do you allow him to suffer this way? Why doesn't this suffering end? We have had thousands of questions similar to this one and it is valid to present it before God, when this happens we have the comfort of knowing that we are not the only ones who think this way, let us remember the same Lord Jesus Christ who asked the question while nailed to the cross of the Calvary: Father, why have you forsaken me?
Let us know that we can express from the depths of our hearts everything we feel at that moment and God will respond, he will keep us close to him surrounded by love and mercy, without a doubt God will come to our rescue.

En esos momentos difíciles en que dudamos, en que sufrimos o tenemos miedo, acerquémonos a Dios buscando el consuelo y las respuestas que necesitamos, él está atento a nuestra oración y nuestras necesidades para responder.
He aquí, aunque él me matare, en él esperaré;
No obstante, defenderé delante de él mis caminos,
Y él mismo será mi salvación,
Porque no entrará en su presencia el impío.
Oíd con atención mi razonamiento,
Y mi declaración entre en vuestros oídos.
He aquí ahora, si yo expusiere mi causa,
Sé que seré justificado.
¿Quién es el que contenderá conmigo?
Porque si ahora yo callara, moriría.
A lo menos dos cosas no hagas conmigo;
Entonces no me esconderé de tu rostro:
Aparta de mí tu mano,
Y no me asombre tu terror.
Llama luego, y yo responderé;
O yo hablaré, y respóndeme tú.
¿Cuántas iniquidades y pecados tengo yo?
Hazme entender mi transgresión y mi pecado.
¿Por qué escondes tu rostro,
Y me cuentas por tu enemigo?
¿A la hoja arrebatada has de quebrantar,
Y a una paja seca has de perseguir?
Job 13:15-25
Si tenemos algún tipo de duda en acercarnos a Dios aún cuando tenemos mucha duda, tenemos la vida de Job como una respuesta a esto, en una parte leemos que dice: "Aunque él me matare, en el esperaré" Job nos muestra su decisión a esperar en Dios plenamente confiado sin importar lo que sucediera en el futuro, aún en el momento en que se encontraba luchando tratando de entender la razón por la que sufría, aquí entendemos que tanto la esperanza como la Duda son expresiones clara de Fe.
Como nosotros sabemos que nuestro señor es el único que puede respondernos, yo quería presentar y plantear sus preguntas y más adelante vemos a partir del capítulo 38 que Dios respondió y de esta forma humilló y dejó abrumado a Job.
Yo conozco que todo lo puedes,
Y que no hay pensamiento que se esconda de ti.
¿Quién es el que oscurece el consejo sin entendimiento?
Por tanto, yo hablaba lo que no entendía;
Cosas demasiado maravillosas para mí, que yo no comprendía.
Oye, te ruego, y hablaré;
Te preguntaré, y tú me enseñarás.
De oídas te había oído;
Mas ahora mis ojos te ven.
Por tanto me aborrezco,
Y me arrepiento en polvo y ceniza.
Job 42:2-6
