How do we know God is with us during difficult times?

In times of trial, it may feel as though God is distant or silent. However, as Job expresses in Job 23:10, 'He knoweth the way that I take.' This reminds us that while we may not see or understand our circumstances, God is fully aware of our struggles and is present with us. He understands our frailties and the depth of our pain. The assurance of His omniscience comforts believers, knowing that He leads us through our trials with purpose, and His aim is our growth and sanctification. Jesus promises in Hebrews 4:14-16 that we can approach God's throne of grace with confidence to receive mercy and find grace during our times of need, affirming His active engagement in our lives.
