Learning to Fly Blind

In today’s text, we learn valuable insights from the life of Job on how to fly blind. Though a “blameless and upright man who feared God and shunned evil,” Job had no idea what Satan was scheming against him in God’s court; in other words, Job was flying blind. Job’s ensuing suffering, affliction, and loss would prove to be unwarranted, unexpected, and upending, yet the sovereign LORD was with Job and would work through Job’s hardships to deepen his understanding of and faith in Him. We can trust the sovereignty and good purposes of the same God too.
