Most of us as Christians know that our faith in Jesus Christ is enough to overcome the tragedies that, at some time, will affect us. Then again, is our faith that strong?
Many of us will lose earthly possessions but many of us understand they are only temporary anyway. What about the times we lose family members or close friends due to accidents or storms?
For those of us that read our Bible and are familiar with the book of Job understand that Job was God’s chosen one. However, God allowed Satan to strip Job of all his possessions and then take away his family. The only thing Satan couldn’t do was take Job’s life. Satan tried to convert Job’s way of thinking about the world instead of keeping his eyes on the Lord. Job never gave in and God restored to him what Satan had taken away.
