Have you ever felt like this before and What did you do about this ?
Job did not know why calamities had come upon him. He mistakenly concluded that they had come from Jehovah. Possibly, Satan deliberately sought to give Job the impression that it was God who had caused his affliction. Job became profoundly discouraged, although he refused to curse God, as his wife urged him to do. (Job 2:9, 10) ‘The wicked seem to fare much better than I do,’ he said. (Job 21:7-9) There were times when he just wanted to die. (Job 14:13) Job might have benefited from friends to whom he could unburden himself about his problems, but the three companions who visited him added to Job’s confusion and intensified his feelings of frustration. (Job 19:2; 26:2) Understandably, Job might have asked himself: ‘Why me? What have I done to deserve all this calamity?’
