—Job 42:1-10
by: Angie Osborn.
God allowed Job to get to the lowest of lows—lower than most of us can even imagine. Sometimes people wonder why. Why did God allow so much hurt to fall upon Job? We may never really be able to answer that question with full confidence, but this we do know; Job’s pain and sorrow took him to a much deeper level with God. Job left his hard times with a closer relationship with God. He had new understanding of God and man’s relationship with Him. He experienced God in a powerful way and grew much closer to Him. Was it an easy road? No! Was it worth it? My guess is Job would say, “YES!”
