How do we deal with the perplexities of life and find hope when we are suffering? Habakkuk saw the economy falling apart and his nation heading for destruction (much like our world today). He was tempted to fear and to respond angrily at God’s seeming inaction in the world. He wanted to see God do something more! But then he looked up by faith and all of his fears vanished. We can help counselees to keep from doubting God and sinning against Him by using Habakkuk’s example as a life lesson for trusting God even in the worst of circumstances. Through Habakkuk’s narrative, we can help counselees move from doubt and fear to faith in the most perplexing of circumstances.
