IF I WERE JOB

Sometimes I think that we human are only God’s toy. We don’t have the right or anything to be angry, to be upset of what He had done in our lives. Just like Job. He loved God and obeyed Him with his whole life and family. But see what God had done in Job’s life. He let Job being crushed down. And everything that Job had had in his life was destroyed, his stocks, money, and his family. It seemed that Job was just a toy in God’s eyes. But if we read back to the 1st chapter of Job’s book. We’ll find that God had made a bet with satan. In this case God had to use Job as His tool to show satan that satan would never win. Because God believed that He can count on Job to show His glory. If I were Job, maybe I would have left God. I would curse Him. I’d be very very angry and maybe I’d become an atheist because of that. But thank God I wasn’t Job. And thank Him that He always chooses the right guy. So, I have to begin thinking that things like misery, death, desperation, broken heart, are not the things that God really wants us to have in our lives. He wants the best for all of us. If those difficulties come, then there must be a very glorious reason for that. Either for His glory or our glory. Maybe we’re all just His toys. But all I know that He adores His toys very much.

Just hang in there…
