Why, God? Why?
Job, the righteous one, has a bunch of junk dumped on him. In his heart, you know he's got to be thinking some serious thoughts about why this is happening. His words to God here show it's alright to question God, as long as you don't challenge Him in His sovereignty. I know in our short-sightedness, we often think we know better than God. But the reality is, we're tools of His will, and He's allowed to do whatever He wants with us - period. We have no say in it, other than what He allows (reference Jonah). The will of God trumps even our best interests.
But funny thing is, he promises that everything works together for good, for those that love Him. Reference the end of Job.
