Why does God make us helpless and put us in trouble?

Why does God make us helpless and put us in trouble?

 

 

Job considered them to be the children of fools,

the lowest of society, even younger than himself,

who were as contemptible as guarding dogs,

and they did not hesitate to ridicule,

mock, and despise him from a distance,

even spitting in his face.

He thought this showed that God had made him

powerless and brought him into distress

(Job 30:1, 8-11).

Why does God make us powerless and bring us into distress?

Could it be that God wants us to fully realize

how helpless we are as human beings?

Is it so that God might compel us

to rely entirely on His omnipotence?
