Trust In Him

From: Through The Bible Devotionals

 

Job 42:5-6 "My ears had heard of You but now my eyes have seen You. Therefore I retract what I said and repent in dust and ashes."

 

Job had been questioning God, but now it is God's turn to question Job. The substance of God's questions ask Job that if he lives in a world full of things beyond his understanding, why should he be able to figure out what God is presently doing in his life? Such a wonderful Creator should be trusted by His creation to do what is in their best interest.

 

Job entered into a new relationship with God. Up until that time he had heard of God through others lives and stories. Now he saw God with his own eyes. He has the same reaction that everyone does. (see Isaiah 6:5) He saw the holiness of God and by contrast, his wretched condition.

 

You may never know the reasons for certain trials and struggles, but you can be sure your Creator's character is impeccable. God will see you through, if you will continue to trust in Him.
