Job part 2-Should We Accept Good from God and not Adversity?

  Key Verse:   Then his wife said to him, “Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God and die.” But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips .     Job 2:9-10   This week, Job will lose more than just his family and material wealth, which would be enough to destroy anyone’s faith! He will have to give up his physical health.   Yet this too God allows to reveal Job’s faithfulness.   When I think of my life, I realize I have little to complain about compared to what he suffered.   I like Job long to respond to tragedy with faith.   And like Peter to say:   But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed .   1 Peter 4:13   Read Job 2 ·         Like last week,...
