Scripture: Habakkuk 1:12-2:1

Too often, in the Bible and in our own lives, when God shows his people his plan, our response isn’t one of trust. Instead, we respond with further doubt; with more questioning; with argument; with a demand for details. This normal, human, doubt-filled response is true of Habakkuk, even in starting and ending these verses with a right theology of God: after hearing God’s answer Habakkuk’s original lament, the prophet questions God’s original plan, God’s justice, and even God’s righteousness.
