Job 10

Here Job refuses to be silent.  He pours out his soul to You--his confusion (have I done something wrong so that I deserve this suffering?  Why is this happening to me?), bitterness, anger, and despair.  But he also believes in You--he is clearly speaking to You here, and speaks of Your creation, Your love and comfort and grace.  Despite his suffering, despite his doubts, Job still believes in You and refuses to curse You.  Please give me the strength to believe in You no matter what else is going on in my life, and please give me the courage to be honest about my feelings with You, but also to overcome those feelings.
