But He Knows the Way I Take

[S] Job 23:10 --
10 "But He knows the way I take;
When He has tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

[O] Job states that he is unable to track where God is working no matter how hard he tries, but he know for certain that he will equip him to come forth as precious and pure as gold to uphold His purposes in this world.  This comes from a man who had just lost everything he treasured for no specific reason and struggled through listening to his friends' blaming him for what he deserved.  He is not going to try to understand everything but to recognize God's purpose for his life and his commitment to live it out.

[A] Not even close to Job's experiences of loss and turmoil, but as I face challenges after another in my life, I should not try to understand everything but to glorify God for equipping me to handle His purpose designed for my life -- and be satisfied with just knowing that.

[P] Dear Father, I'm so grateful for Your preparing my life despite the difficulties I may run into.  May I not focus on the difficult situations but to You O God for doing the wonderful things even if I do not see or understand them.  In Jesus' name.  Amen.
