Whilst going through the book of Job in class, we have been reflecting on the very comforting fact that God is far beyond our wisdom. He is in control of the whole universe. He made it all and sustains it all. This is comforting because there are many things that don’t make sense to us in this world, but it does to God and he is in control.
So, this begs the challenging question in regards to Job, are we ever going to know the reason for our suffering? Or maybe the better question is, should we go and try and find the reason for our suffering?
If someone we know is suffering, so often we try and figure out why it is happening. But maybe the book of Job is showing us that this is not necessarily the best response. Instead, the best response seems to be to admit we dont know why, but God does and thats what matters.

The Son is the radiance of Gods glory & the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty of heaven. So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs. Hebrews 1:3.4
