Dealing With Difficult Times.

My daily readings continue to take me through Job. Heavy going, but fruitful I hope!

The Book is dealing with the difficult times that have come upon Job.

But of course, the Book is God's Word to us.

You can be sure, that pain will inevitably afflict each one of us. Suffering is unavoidable in this life.

The question is - Will your relationship with God be enough when trials come?

Will you trust Him through your suffering?

Could I encourage you to read Chapters 38-42. That will be enough to blow you away. In those chapters we have a very powerful picture of our Creator God.

Pray that you might see God as He really is.

Then we might be able to see our situation through His eyes.

Rather than asking where God is in the middle of our pain, the Book of Job affirms God's sovereignty over our situation.

He asks us, "Where are we in our pain?"

Are we trusting God - even though we can't understand the circumstances?

Have a great day,

Peter Clark.
