Job goes through unspeakable pain. He often expresses his anguish and despair as he tries to understand what is happening to him.  But in today’s reading (Job 22:1-25:6) he has a moment of real clarity.  He may not know all the intricacies of God’s wisdom in sending suffering but he is confident of the ultimate purpose (Job 23:10).

Can you rest in God’s ultimate good  purpose for your suffering?  Job did.
