Job and faith

 We all know that Job had great faith in God...through all of the hardships and even when he felt that it was unjust, his faith in his redeemer remained strong.  I was just struck today by the thought that we have do much more...the whole Bible,  Jesus,  the Holy Spirit...he didn't have these helps and yet was strong in faith. That is quite amazing. 

Job 19:25-27 

I know that my redeemer lives,  

and that in the end he will stand on the earth.

26 And after my skin has been destroyed,
    yet in my flesh I will see God;
27 I myself will see him
    with my own eyes—I, and not another.
    How my heart yearns  within me!
