Obadiah
Obadiah is the shortest book in the Old Testament. It is primarily speaking of the condemnation and destruction of Edom from God. The prophet Obadiah was the penman. The name "Obadiah" means servant of Yahweh. The Herods of the New Testament are of Edomite heritage. Edom was enemies of Israel, even though they were related by blood. Their hatred for them went back to Esau losing his birthright to Jacob.

Suffering
I will choose to praise HIM even when I don't understand even when my heart is broke even when it takes more effort than I'd like to admit I will praise HIS
THE SECRET OF SUFFERING
We're all familiar with the clich� "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." But for many of us that phrase is incomplete. It should continue, "the tough get going in the opposite direction!" So often we retreat from the tough times and question the plan of a God who would allow us to experience pain. But He is neither a wasteful Father, nor a cruel one. Suffering presents us with a personal challenge: we can either use our suffering as a bridge in building relationships with others, or we can view it as a wall that separates us from those around us. The choice is ours.
James writes that suffering is actually productive. It produces endurance in us by stretching our faith. Paul adds that it makes us useful to others, because the God of all comfort "comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." (II Corinthians 1:4)
Maybe like Joseph, you are in the pit. Maybe you're waiting in a dark, windowless place of suffering. Perhaps your personal "pit" is so deep and dark that it has caused you to question the very existence of God. If so, take heart in this basic biblical principle: those whom God would greatly use and bless will always experience a time of suffering. It is not possible to be used significantly by God in any area of endeavor without suffering. You don't have to consider the suffering itself joy...but joy will be the end of what God will do with it if you trust Him.
James 1:2-3
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

IRON BUTTERFLY - IN A GADDA DA VIDA - 1968 (ORIGINAL FULL VERSION) CD SO...
One of the greatest songs written in the 60s. It was a 17 minute, 6 second long song featuring solos from every member of the band. It was originally called In the Garden of Eden, but it came out in-a-gadda-da-vida because the lead singer, Doug Ingle, was drunk when he tried to say In the Garden of Eden. This song is sometimes considered the birth of heavy metal.

God's love
Are you born again? Do you trust in Jesus Christ for your salvation? If you are, you have a secure, loving relationship with God. If you are not born again then you have no relationship with God ( John 14: 6).
You may not "feel" God's love because feelings come and go. There is a tendency for people's hearts to grow cold and even the most devout Christian's can struggle with maintaining their love and service to God. The lack of feelings of love does not mean your relationship with God has ended. God never changes.
God is the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort ( 2 Corinthians 1:3). God loves you and desires to help during trying times like these.
Reflect on your walk with God so far. Consider past victories (1 Samuel 7:12) what God has brought you through. Christian's will not feel comfy cozy all the time. Spend time praying and getting to know God more. To know Him is to love Him. Read the Bible. God's word is " truly a lamp to my feet and a light for my path" (Psalm 119:105).
Seek Christian counseling especially if you are angry with God. It is difficult to feel love for someone when you are angry at them. Find a Godly mentor and spend time with them studying the Bible.
The church is called the body of Christ (Romans 12:5). There will be many opportunities to serve God there.
