Bible friends, do we realize that we often compare our lives to others? We wonder why those who choose the path that is far from the truth seem to live easily, as if they receive no reward at all, while those who try to live faithfully to God must wrestle with challenges and suffering. In this text, Job reminds us that the life of every human being, whether the righteous or the wicked, is under the authority of God himself. So rather than getting caught up in jealousy or doubt, we should focus on our relationship with the Creator.
Today we are reminded not to judge life based on worldly success alone. True happiness does not always correlate with material wealth or apparent joy. Behind every phase of life, there is a divine secret that can only be understood through faith and surrender to God. The wicked may enjoy temporary “victories,” but we are invited to pursue a life that has eternal value—a life of obedience, honesty, and love for others.
Life is not a competition for material things and popularity, but rather a spiritual journey that must be lived with gratitude and obedience to God. Don't let outward appearances destroy our belief in the truth. Every soul is called to live in integrity, without relying on temporary worldly comforts. Let us learn to understand that everything is in God's hands. So the most important thing is to continue on the right path—even though sometimes that path is full of challenges—because in the end, true judgment is not from humans, but from the Almighty.
