When you don’t understand
Job 1.1; 2.1-10The story of Job begins. He is an honest and upright man, who loses everything (home, family, prosperity, health) yet refuses to blame God, believing that both good and bad comes from God’s hand. A dialogue between God and Satan (called ‘The Adversary’ or ‘The Accuser’ in some translations) seems to indicate that God has allowed Job to be tested in this way.
The God who allows Job to suffer appalling losses is the same God who takes a child in his arms and blesses them. There are some things we are not equipped to understand, but as God is faithful to us so we are called to be faithful to him.
