Job continues talking even if his ife seemed futile and his days swift as a weaver's shuttle. He says: --
My flesh is clothed with worms and encrusted with dirt; my skin is cracked and festering. My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle; they come to an end
Job could not understand why the trials came as he tried hard to hold onto hope. He searched his heart and questioned why, but God knew. It was not the end of the story for his life has been an inspiration to many down through the years.
When suffering comes our way we can find hope and assurance that God is there with us and He has all the answers, just as he did for Job, who did not give up and in the end he was given double blessings in life. Yes God cares for our cares! Be blessed.
