Why a good God allows evil in the world is a question that humans will always wrestle with. The story of Habakkuk shifts our focus away from the "why" and onto what God is doing about it. Through Habakkuk's example of lament, we can learn to find joy in the midst of our suffering.

GROUP QUESTIONS:

1. Do you have a complaint for God?

2. Have you ever expressed your complaints or anger to God?

3. Is there something keeping you from the practice of lamenting? What is it?

4. What is an area of your life that needs a shift in focus, from "why" to "what is God doing"?
