This blog post is based off of Job 40:1-14 from the "New Women's Devotional Bible".
WOW! All I can say in response to today's reading it that. I am in awe of the message I read this morning and I continue to be blessed by the story of Job. He was a righteous man who questioned God. But in the end God reminded him that He is sovereign and He knows all and that was comforting to Job.
There are plenty times in life where we have wondered and asked God "Why?". Situations that arise that cause us to challenge our faith and our understanding of Christ and to make sense of it all. Reading Job's story is helpful in these times. I challenge you to read it so that you understand the powerful God that Job witnessed during his trials.
After Job spoke, God spoke. Once God spoke Job could say no more. Maybe this is the pattern that we need to take. Not that God doesn't want us to speak anymore, but the fact that once we do hear God's voice and message then we will be in awe of His power and not be able to speak of it anymore. Very powerful!
God is good all the time. His ways are higher than our ways.
"When God permits suffering, He also provides comfort."
