Charles Spurgeon Commentary Job 19:7

"Behold, I cry out of wrong, but I am not heard: I cry for help, but there is no justice." — Job 19:7 (ASV)

Poor Job! When our prayer is not heard, or we think it is not, then the clouds above us are dark indeed. You who are passing through a season of unanswered prayer, do not imagine that you are the first to traverse that dreary way! You can see the footprints of others on that desolate sandy shore.

Job knew what that experience meant, so did David, and so did our blessed Lord. Read Psalm 22:2, and hear Jesus say, O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
