God led me to read the last five chapters of Job this morning. In my case, I've been unemployed the past eight months and watching my savings dwindle away.
I understand the whole point was to draw me into a deeper relationship with God but I'm so ready to move on and yet I am left to wait and my patience and faith are being tested more than I can sometimes bear. I know He is in control.
In this thread, my point is that I understand those who fall away but I understood when I accepted Christ that my life apart from Him was already pointless. Now I'm suffering hardship and sometimes not handling it very well.
Thank you, all, for your words.

Good luck
