I am sure that Job would have chosen an alternative to losing his children, his health and his wealth; but he was willing to trust the Lord through times that can;t be understood. Job 13:15
What about you and me? Do we really believe that the Lord is absolutely faithful, that He has our best interests at heart?
Just as every new day brings with it its own set of problems, so each day brings a new, unfailing, all-sufficient, supply of God’s marvelous, matchless, wonderful, amazing grace.
God will never fail those who place their trust in Him, Rom. 10:11.
Lamentations 3:22-24 It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.
[23] They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
[24] The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.

“Great is Thy faithfulness, — O God, my Father, — There is no shadow of turning with Thee, — Thou changest not, — Thy compassion's, they fail not, — As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.
Chorus:
“Great is Thy faithfulness! — Great is Thy faithfulness! — Morning by morning new mercies I see. — All I have needed Thy hand hath provided, — Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
“Summer and winter and springtime and harvest, — Sun, moon and stars in their courses above; — Join with all nature in manifold witness — To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
“Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, — Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide, — Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, — Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!”
Thomas O. Chisholm
