In the book of Job, chapter 8, one of Job's friends named Bildad asked how long Job was going to act like the way he was, blustering about, feeling sorry for himself. Bildad reminded Job that God does not twist justice, that he finds favor in those who live with integrity and pray to the Lord.
Bildad told him that they all started out with very little, but will end up with much because of their honor of God.
How long do plants live without nourishment? True, they may flower and look good. But deep down in their roots, if the ground is rocky and lack of moisture, they will not grow to their true potential. In much the same way with people, those who worship the Lord will be nourished by Him. God is just to those with integrity.
Find nourishment in reading God's Word, praying to Him daily. Put your complete trust in the Lord.
