In Job 13:20-21 Job makes two requests to God that reveal his heart. His desire is to know and love God. Yet Job felt that his suffering is blocking that fellowship. Job implores God to stop the affliction. The weight of his anguish is a burden he cannot carry and fellowship with God. With that affliction comes fear. How can he be intimate with one who is so scary? Even in his pain Job longs for the restoration of what he feels has been lost; his communion with God.
