 HE LOVES ME

Today's reading: Job 13-14

"I wish you would hide me with the dead and forget me there until your anger has passed. But mark your calendar to think of me again! If mortals die, can they live again? This thought would give me hope, and through my struggle I would eagerly wait for release. You would call and I would answer, and you would yearn for me, your handiwork. For then you would count my steps, instead of watching for my sins. My sins would be sealed in a pouch, and you would cover over my iniquity." Job 14:13-17 NLT

Job has just asked God to put him aside instead of disciplining him.

But only until His anger has passed.

Not to the point of forgetting about him.

And then...then and only then...call him back to His side.

Because Job knows as hard as the season is that he is going through, and as bad as it feels, he cannot get through it without God.

He loves God and knows God loves him.

That's what will get us through, friends.

That's all that will get us through!
