How can we "fix" this....

Ok, who wouldn't want to help Job? Perhaps provide words of comfort? After all, we usually want to "fix" things. In Job C 4-7, we see Eliphaz attempt to do just that. He realizes the severity of the situation and does not try to offer empty words. He speaks from his heart and offers what appears to be good advice from his own experience. That is really all he can offer....except his silence, but we've covered that. Job's response is in v 24, "all I want is a reasonable answer"...true for all of our sufferings. So we see Eliphaz providing no comfort, perhaps the others will not fall victim to trying to make sense out of something they do not understand....not likely....
