Job 23:11-12

For I have stayed in God's paths; I have followed his ways and not turned aside. I have not departed from his commands but have treasured his word in my heart. (NLT)

Job was aware of God's omnipresience, but confused by the storms and trials he was enduring. He could get no fixed view of God's merciful presence, nor find comfort by spreading his case before Him. His views had become gloomy. God seemed to watch from a distance, and for all Job knew, was frowning upon him. Yet, during his darkest hour Job expressed his assurance that he should be brought forth, tried, and approved, for he had obeyed the precepts of God. He had relished and delighted in the truths and commandments of God.
