Job said:
"Today I complain bitterly, because God has been cruel and made me suffer. If I knew where to find God, I would go there and argue my case.
"Then I would discover what he wanted to say. Would he overwhelm me with his greatness? No! He would listen because I am innocent, and he would say, 'I now set you free!'
"I cannot find God anywhere--in front or back of me, to my left or my right. God is always at work, though I never see him.
…
"[God] makes me tremble with fear. God has covered me with darkness, but I refuse to be silent."
