God is sovereign and he is loving! So that doesn't mean he is on our chain, and we can yank it any time we want, and he will magically deliver what we want.
In fact, the Bible says the opposite. Job was a righteous man who suffered greatly, God did not deliver him for a long, long time, and never explained himself. He doesn't have to, he is God.
As for suffering, it is part of the process of sanctification, of chipping the edges off our malformed character. It is part of the refining process, where the dross comes off and something beautiful is created.
Look up "refine, refiner, refining" in the Bible and see how often God uses that metaphor. I was a jeweler for 7 years, and I can assure you that creating a beautiful piece of jewelry requires more than just being burned up in a fire. It means being twisted, hammered, cut, filed, put in acid, hammered more, buffed, buffed more, a bath in ammonia. And then, you need to rebuff it to bring out the sheen.
"Therefore thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will refine them and test them, for what else can I do, because of my people?" Jeremiah 9:7
"Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver;
I have tried you in the furnace of affliction.
[SUP]11 [/SUP]For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it,
for how should my name be profaned?
My glory I will not give to another." Isa. 48:10-11
"and some of the wise shall stumble, so that they may be refined, purified, and made white, until the time of the end, for it still awaits the appointed time." Daniel 11:35
"And I will put this third into the fire, and refine them as one refines silver, and test them as gold is tested. They will call upon my name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘They are my people’; and they will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’”" Zechariah 13:9
And if these verses seem scary, God really is in control. This is one of my life verses about suffering. It has profoundly influenced my whole thinking about God, and realizing that I can trust him totally, even in the midst of trials and tribulations.
"Not only that, but werejoice in our sufferings, knowing that sufferingproduces endurance, [SUP]4 [/SUP]and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, [SUP]5 [/SUP]and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us." Romans 5:3-5
"God is love." 1 John 4:8, 16
Praying you find the love of God, and realize that one day, we will be with Jesus, and there will be no tears or crying anymore.
