Job 38:
22 "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow or seen the storehouses
   of the hail, 

²³ which I reserve for times of trouble, for days of war and battle?

The background of this story is on Job finally given his desire to have an audience with God after
the "suffering" he underwent. Verses 22-23 is part of the questions God posed to Job....

Truly, even if we are the wisest man on earth, even if we live a sinless life, even if we had received
10 noble prizes... we can never match God's wisdom. He may allow us to undergo trials and
suffering BUT His reasons for doing so should never be questioned.

Like Job, questioning God will only make us see our unworthiness.

Though I constantly take my life in my hands, I will not forget your law.  Ps 119:109

It is through God's amazing grace that we can truly become His disciples.

We first build upon a relationship with Jesus Christ, a relationship that will be tried and tested but must not be blurred.

God's supernatural grace will sustain us in building our relationship with Him because he chose us (Jn 15:16)

As a Christian, building on a relationship with Jesus means dismantling our relationship with ourselves. When God calls us to do something for Him, let his grace make us fit to do it.
