[:en]Thoughts from Job 9 -10[:]

[:en]Job affirmed that God is just, but he stood firm that he was blameless and therefore why should he be condemned by God.  He felt he was helpless because:

  1. he cannot contend with God as God is wise and powerful.
  2. he cannot answer God since God is the judge, he cannot argue with Him
  3. he cannot understand God with the question:  Why God allow him to be born yet turned away from him to suffer and be carried to the grave.

What Job needed was a mediator:  “If only there were someone to arbitrate between us” (v. 33)

Today we have Jesus Christ as our mediator.  Jesus understands your needs and can do something about your complain if you trust Him.[:]
