Day 25

Read: Job 22:1 – 25:6

Reflect:

To think that God needs man for anything would be to ascribe too much significance to man and too little to God. (Job 22:2)
How can you trust God’s goodness and sovereign plan even when, like Job, you cannot see the reason for your own or others’ pain?

The lesson for Job was that retribution does not operate on an earthly, human timetable but according to divine will. (Job 24:1)

Job never claimed that the wicked always prosper and never receive punishment. He simply questioned why God treated the righteous and the wicked alike. (Job 24:18-25)
Why do you think God treats the righteous and wicked alike?
