When you look at everything Job went through, was God disciplining a wayward child, or was something else happening there?

It’s easy to assume suffering means we did something wrong. But sometimes God allows hard seasons because He’s shaping us for something we can’t even see yet, something that only makes sense looking back (if it ever fully makes sense at all).

Why did God put Job through all that?
