Job is a book of the Bible that many pick up to ask and answer big existential questions—Why does God allow suffering?Is there any purpose in life?If God is good, why do bad things happen?
While the book touches on those questions, it doesn't answer them with clean memorable statements that we're eager to quote or apply to our own suffering. In fact, Job gives us something better than answers; it gives us God.
The book of Job isn't a how–to manual for navigating tough times, rather it's a book that leads us to the very feet of the God who holds the universe in His hands and sustains us in our suffering.
