The One Year Bible - Day 239

There is something interesting about the way that Job struggles. It is hard to imagine quite how much he suffered emotionally, physically and spiritually but the significant thing was that he never doubted God. He was operating in a place of "I don't know why this is happening but I trust God" rather than his so-called friends who have distorted the truth to try and make it fit in with what they know (or think they know). This is a human trait because we like to think we have a good understanding of life but we need to be quicker to say, "I don't know" when we don't know so that God can teach us the truth in His own time.
