Mad at God, Yet Drawn to Him
Scripture
“Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.”
—Psalm 62:8
Reflection
It is often the people who feel the angriest at God who find themselves coming back to Him most quickly. Why? Because anger at God still acknowledges His presence and power. It shows that, deep down, we know He is there—and that He matters.
Job argued with God. David cried out in frustration and lament. Jeremiah accused God of deceiving him. Yet, none of them turned their backs fully. Their anger was not rejection; it was a brokenhearted cry for answers, healing, and hope. In fact, those moments of confrontation often became the doorway to a deeper encounter with God’s love and sovereignty.
Indifference is more dangerous than anger. If you are “mad at God,” it means you are still in relationship with Him. And He would rather have your honest cries than your silence.
Takeaway
Don’t fear your emotions before God. He is not offended by your honesty; He is moved by it. Bring Him your anger, your confusion, your disappointment. He can handle it—and in time, He will turn even your rawest feelings into renewed trust.
Prayer
Lord, I confess the times I have been angry at You, when I did not understand Your ways. Thank You for not pushing me away, but drawing me near even in my struggle. Teach me to trust You with my whole heart, even when I don’t have all the answers. Amen.
