Quotes by Riley Bounds (?)

“Brothers and sisters in Christ frequently point to the lament psalms for those grieving. It’s often said they always end in hope. But not all do. Some end in unanswered pleas (Ps. 44, 74, 80, 88). In the whirlwind, God displayed power to Job, not answers (Job 38–41). When Lazarus died, Jesus didn’t offer Mary a sermon or remind her that he wasn’t in pain anymore. Jesus wept (John 11:32–35). Similarly, the pieces in this volume don’t always neatly resolve. They don’t always end in hopeful exhortations. Many end in silence. Silence is the sound of God listening.”
