Job 18-21

Even after all of the hard things Job had to endure and even the sadness for all he had lost he still knew truth deep down.
19:25 “For I know that my Redeemer lives,
and at the last he will stand upon the earth.
26And after my skin has been thus destroyed,
yet in my flesh I shall see God,”
When we have no answer for all that is going on in our lives we can hold on to these truths just as Job did. Paul put it another way, “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.” Saint of God, we can know these things. It is why Jesus came. He redeemed man kind from our sinful state and made a way for us to be right with God. The only way to know eternal life is to believe that Jesus is God’s Son, receive the forgiveness He offers by confessing our sin and then walking His way instead of what our flesh pulls us to. No it is not easy and you will fail at times, but the redemptive power of the cross offers forgiveness and restoration once for all. Hold to these truths in good times and bad and live in the assurance of good yet to come.
