Job 1-8

What do we do with Job? Remember that his friends are wrong. remember that Job never seeks to justify God, only himself. So when the worst happens this year, as it might, remember that God is in Heaven and can do as He pleases. Remember that He is good even as He sends what we would call 'disaster.' But there are no disasters for the one who receives all things from the and of a loving Father. And when others struggle, remember that the truth is more complicated than our systems can conceive of, remember that Job's friends did ok until they spoke.
