So remember when we read Job 1-2. Job's whole family died besides his wife. All his livestock and shepherds died..everything was taken from him. In this chapters 3-4 he finally breaks his silence of mourning to say that he wishes he had never been born. He was in such agony he wished he was stricken dead. But his friend, Eliphaz, told him to stop. He bring people up (makes them happy) all the time, he inspires people to be happier in life, he supported people who were falling in life all the time. But when something bad happened to him, he moped, (not mopped). Moped. He moped around, wanting to die, but never dying..
Don't be like this when someone you know dies, guys. Know that they aren't suffering anymore. If they were saved, know that they are going to heaven. Don't mourn forever, God is there to take their place. To fill the whole they occupied. Don't waste anytime in this world. Spend time sharing God.
