One of my favorite stories. Job is a perfect man. God provided him a prosperous life with food, family, and protection. Satan thinks he will sin if he takes away his possessions and family, so he kills all his livestock and sons. But Job remains perfect and bows down and worships the Lord without sinning. This greatly applies to my life right now. My worldly possessions and relationships are meaningless and I should keep my focus on the Lord. All good that comes from anything is from the Lord, not what I make of it. Job had everything he cared about on Earth taken away, and he submitted himself to the Lord- "The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away; Blessed be the name of the Lord."
