Job was stripped of all his possessions,his family, his health, and his friends. But God was with him, through it all. Disease, distress, and loneliness, entered his life. His friends thought such suffering; could only come because of sin. With all the world wisdom, they accused him; but they had nothing to offer him. It makes one wonder what kind of friends they were.It is so hard to explain,why a person who thrust, and serve God faithfully go though such trails; but God does not hoe us an explanation: we should thrust, and not judge. .Job was not able to see the full picture, as we now see it. The book of Job takes us behind the scene; it gives us some of the answers; to the question ,of why? Christian suffer.
Satan the accuser of the Brethren came around with his tricks; and at times we fall for his tricks. when we take our eyes off Christ. When Job see God in His Holiness, and glory, what a deference it makes.you may ask is there an end to suffering? we may be in heaviness through manifold temptations, says Peter, 1:6-7, that the trials of our faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth through it be tried with fire, in this World Christians will experience suffering; sometimes, when we willing sin; and sometimes because of some one else. Christ paid the penalty for our sin; but He also said in this World we will have Tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.through CHRIST we also can be over commers.
