We saw in our last post that Christ said He will never leave us, but there are times when we don’t feel His presence in our lives. As we look to scripture we see that Job had a point in his adversity where he couldn't feel God's presence.
Let's look at Job 23:8-10 "Look, I go forward, but He is not there, And backward, but I cannot perceive Him; When He works on the left hand, I cannot behold Him; When He turns to the right hand, I cannot see Him. But He knows the way that I take; When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold."
You see, Job trusted God even though he couldn't sense His presence. He believed that God was watching over him and would bring him through the trial as purified gold, and God did .
My friend, as you go through the adversities in your life, know that God is always with you even when you can't feel Him! We cannot go by feelings, we need to trust God and know as Job did that God is watching over us and is with us each and every day, through the good times and the bad.
Let us say with Job - Blessed be the name of the Lord.
