“HE HIDETH HIMSELF . . . I cannot see him.”  “To those that hunger for intimacy and continual fellowship with God, this hiding of His face is terrible.  When the Lord is silent, there is a great annoyance of the soul.  When He seems to hide His face and shuts the door on each enterprise, that is strange and baffling.  However, when it appears that He is the initiator and propagator of the dismal dejection, that is heartache that eludes understanding.  This is when the child cries for help and supplies, but there is no answer from God.  The poor soul looks in every direction and studies all condition, pleading with exasperated hopes, only to find, like the Father of hope, they too hid themselves from the staggering saint.  (Job 10: 8-10, & 18-19).”  (The Dark Side of The Hold; No name mentioned)
