Job 1:21 - He said, "I came naked from my mother's womb, and I will be naked when I leave. The Lord gave me what I had, and the Lord has taken it all away. Praise the name of the Lord!"
Job knew that everything happened according to God's will, and all things were a blessing and gift from God. Although Satan was the one testing Job, God was the one that permitted it. He knew that Job would not sin and would not blame God for anything. Job knew that God was blameless and that He would make all things work together for his good.
I love the story of Job. It is one of my absolute favorites in the entire Bible. Even though Job was tested to the limits of human patience and understanding, he still would not give in and blame or reject God. I can only hope and pray for a fraction of Job's patience and love for God.
Dear Abba Father, I ask for Your blessing and strength to stay strong in my faith and love for You. Please protect me and comfort me as only You can do. I know You will not let any harm come to me because of Your unending love and grace. In Jesus' name, Amen!
God Bless!!!
