One person hears from strangers, “Where is your God?” Another hears from family and friends, “Where is your God?” A third hears from self, “Where is your God?” When troubled times flow like tearless infant cries the air fills with confused and faithless questions.
A righteous person such as Job may follow up with, “But I desire to speak to the Almighty and to argue my case with God. You, however, smear me with lies; you are worthless physicians, all of you! …Would it turn out well if he examined you? Could you deceive him as you might deceive men? …How many wrongs and sins have I committed? Show me my offense and my sin. Why do you hide your face and consider me your enemy?” (Job 13:3-4, 9, 23)
Though the love of God is not felt on a sick bed, yet God sees and knows. This promise I have, “And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you” (Matthew 28:20 Hebrews 13:5)
