Job 7:1 says, Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?  Job had been wishing that he had never been born, but here acknowledges that man has an allotted time on earth.  I believe that he was saying that he thought his time on earth should have come to an end.  We could interpret this to mean that no matter what we do we are going to live a certain number of days and then die at a previously appointed time.  I personally do not believe that we our time of death is determined even before we are born.  I believe that free will often leads to actions that shorten a person's life.  We can say that God takes these free will actions into account when determining the length of a person's life, but to me that really negates the concept of free to will.  Job also said that a hireling can expect his wages at the end of the day so he can go away to rest.  I believe Job was saying he felt that he deserved rest, even if it came by his death.   Verse two adds, As a servant earnestly desireth the shadow, and as an hireling looketh for the reward of his work:  As just stated, Job felt that those who had worked deserved their reward and rest, so did he.  Verse three continues, So am I made to possess months of vanity, and wearisome nights are appointed to me.  I believe that Job was saying that although he continued to live, or at least exist, there was no purpose to his life except suffering.  He had no usefulness in the day and could not even rest at night.  Hopefully, we will never reach the point of feeling that life is without purpose and only full of suffering.  If we are followers of Christ, we must put our faith in Him and know that even when we do not understand why certain things are happening in life, He still has a purpose for us.  Verse four states, When I lie down, I say, When shall I arise, and the night be gone? and I am full of tossings to and fro unto the dawning of the day.  All Job could hope for at night was for it to be over, since he could get no rest anyway.  Job could find no rest from his suffering, and he felt that God was causing it.  I believe this added to his suffering.  If we believe that everything in life is a direct action of God, and we are suffering, then we have to believe that God is punishing us.  If we are sure that we have done nothing to deserve this punishment as a follower of Christ, how much greater the suffering will be.  Verse five adds, My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin is broken, and become loathsome.  Job recognized how he looked physically to those around him, but they could not see how he looked spiritually.  We should never judge a person's spiritual condition by their physical condition.  Even then, God had not given up on Job.  Verse six continues, My days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle, and are spent without hope.  We would think that days of suffering would pass slowly, but Job said his were passing rapidly and without hope.  I believe that Job meant his days left to live were quickly passing since he was in such terrible shape and he saw no hope of recovery.  Still, as long as there is life there should be hope.  Verse seven says, O remember that my life is wind: mine eye shall no more see good.  Job said that his life was as invisible as the wind to those around him.  His life served no purpose, and he could see no good in it.  If we begin to feel that no one sees us in our struggles and we can see no good in life, we need to simply look to God.  We are always in God's sight.  Verse eight adds, The eye of him that hath seen me shall see me no more: thine eyes are upon me, and I am not.  Job fully expected to die soon.  Physically, he would cease to exist.  He saw this as his only way to the end of his suffering.  Verse nine adds, As the cloud is consumed and vanisheth away: so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.  Job said this physical body shall never return from the grave as it now exists.  We will have a new and glorious body when Christ returns to claim His church, those that believe in Him.  Verse ten continues, He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.  Job said that once we die, we are not coming back to this world.  We will be in a world without sin, suffering and death.  We may be forgotten by the world, but we will never be forgotten by nor separated from God.
