Poor Old Job

In the Old Testament of the Bible, there is a book called The Book of Job. In it, Job describes all the hurt and heartache he experienced. Worse than yours or mine, a lot worse! But, he never blamed God and he never backslid. He remained true to God. His friends basically put him down and made him feel bad about himself (typical). Many people today say they relate to “poor ol Job.” I doubt that very seriously. I don’t know of anyone who’s children were all killed by a tornado, cyclone or typhoon, then lost their entire livelihood and had idiot friends show up and tell them it was all their fault! Scholars believe that Jobs experience lasted only about 9 months. And, if you read the last chapter, you find out God turned everything around for his good and he lived many more years! SO, IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE “POOR OLD JOB,” YOU BETTER GET READY FOR VICTORY!!!
