God Is Hidden, But Job Remains Faithful

Job 23:8-12

Behold, I go forward, but he is notthere; And backward, but I cannot perceive him;

On the left hand, when he doth work, but I cannot behold him; He hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him.

But he knoweth the way that I take; When he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

My foot hath held fast to his steps; His way have I kept, and turned not aside.

I have not gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured up the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.
