When The Answer Asks The Questions

The Book of Job—widely regarded as one of the Bible’s oldest books—tells the story of a man who loses everything yet clings to faith.  It confronts one of humanity’s oldest questions: why suffering exists in a world governed by an all-powerful, all-good God.  For thirty-seven chapters, Job’s anguish unfolds through grief, debate, and unanswered questions.  Then, in chapters 38–41, God responds with seventy-seven questions that are responsive, revealing, and redeeming.  Job wants an explanation for his suffering; God gives him a demonstration of His sufficiency.  This message reminds us that we can experience this blessing too!
