Job 10:1–7, “My soul is weary of my life; I will leave my complaint upon myself; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul. I will say unto God, Do not condemn me; shew me wherefore thou contendest with me. Is it good unto thee that thou shouldest oppress, that thou shouldest despise the work of thine hands, and shine upon the counsel of the wicked? Hast thou eyes of flesh? or seest thou as man seeth? Are thy days as the days of man? are thy years as man’s days, That thou enquirest after mine iniquity, and searchest after my sin? Thou knowest that I am not wicked; and there is none that can deliver out of thine hand.”

After and extended period of pain, Job was getting tired of living. He didn’t want to face another day of his agony. He wanted to speak to God and ask God not to punish him so much. Was it good for God to see him suffer so? Was God a man to understand the pain that a suffering man experiences? Deep in his heart, Job knew that he wasn’t guilty of sin but he also believed that, when God chose to do something, nothing could stop God.
