Hope?

So, what is the point of Job's "friends" input? They are merely using human logic to show that Job's circumstances must bbe the result of his actions. We'd be thinking likewise. The patience of Job really shows in ch19, as Job declares he has endured their assults 10 times! We might do a few,then violence might break out. Job is able to withstand this due to his hope. Ch 19v25 spells this out beautifully. It might remind you of a song! Job knows that his redeemer lives and that he will see God. Is that enough to carry us through difficult times? Do we rely on hope to get us through? After all, none of us know what the day brings....
