“"Surely you have spoken in my hearing, And I have heard the sound of your words, saying, ‘I am pure, without transgression; I am innocent, and there is no iniquity in me. Yet He finds occasions against me, He counts me as His enemy; He puts my feet in the stocks, He watches all my paths.’ "Look, in this you are not righteous. I will answer you, For God is greater than man.” (Job 33:8-12 NKJV)
We must be taught and told the most obvious, that God is GREATER than man. This world isn’t about what you and I want but what God has PROMISED us in Christ, which we shall have.
Do not think God UNJUST in how He treats you. He is always HOLY and merciful to them that believe; He is BRINGING you to salvation BY what you endure, even as the Judson’s counted the loss of their two year old son to be the loss of ALL they had in this world. They’d gone to India as missionaries and would die in the work themselves, but they hadn’t given God everything, so He took the boy, so that He’d give them Himself, and they’d have something GREATER than idolatry. Do not think that He is wrong, but IMPROVE yourself and grow by the pain you endure.
Ann Judson wrote, "Our hearts were bound up with this child; we felt he was our earthly all, our only source of innocent recreation in this heathen land. But God saw it was necessary to remind us of our error, and to strip us of our only little all. O, may it not be vain that he has done it. May we so improve it that he will stay his hand and say 'It is enough.'"
