Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God.
Job 1:22
When things do not go my way, I have a tendency to ask, "God, why?" I can't understand, and so, I cry out to God. But, God doesn't always tell us why. It's doubtful if Job ever knew why he suffered all this. Instead of asking why, God wants us to ask Him what we should do. We cannot understand all of God's ways. He is so far above us, but we can always obey Him even when we don't understand.
Lord, help me to trust You to do what is best. Help me to follow You no matter what my human reasoning says. Help me to believe that everything You allow is for my good and Your glory. Help me not to blame You or sin when things go wrong. Help me instead to trust You more fully and ask, "What do You want me to do?"
