God never answers the question as to why good people suffer (or why do the wicked prosper). However, God reminds us all of the great power and wisdom that He alone possesses far beyond the capability of man. God seems to be saying that we should question why He does what He does.
Contained in these chapters is so much about God's creation that we can read and marvel at. These chapters are great reading while out in a park or hiking in a place to enjoy the great outdoors. What God has created is of great majesty in how it all works together. Creation is an engineering masterpiece, so interwoven - huge - beyond comprehension!
Creation reminds of God's providence. We can know He is just and in the end His justice will prevail. We need to believe this because we will all suffer at some point and we need to trust that God has His reasons - though we most likely will never learn of them. If you are suffering, it will not necessarily be because of unrepentant sin in your life.
