“I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted” (42:2). God’s dramatic “showing up” in Job’s life changed everything. Job had been hurt and angry, thinking God was punishing him, and Job’s friends had insisted (wrongly) that his suffering was his own fault (42:7). Confronted by God’s voice, his attention drawn to God’s detailed care of the universe, Job was transformed (42:6). He realized that the infinite Creator was involved in his life and did not condemn him (42:7).

“My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you” (42:5). Everything changes when God touches us with His presence. Our fears are calmed, and our darkest nights pierced with light.
