In Job 9 -
10, Job speaks. He is in a mood of deep distress. He speaks of the
futility of arguing with God (Job 9:3). His situation is very
depressing: “I hate my life” (Job 10:1). He is surrounded by deep
darkness: “So stop this, and leave me alone. Let me smile a little
before I go away to a land of darkness and doom to a dismal land of long
shadows and confusion where light is as bright as darkness. I’ll never
return” (Job 10:20-22). When we feel like Job, let's remember Jesus. For us, He went through the darkness of crucifixion into the light of resurrection. He will lead us out of our darkness into His light, out of our death into His life - eternal life.
