I was reading the book of Job. This man, everybody believed, was a blameless man, and therefore, abundantly blessed by God. And then things changed. He lost everything - until his physical existence was a misery! And everyone believed he must have done something terrible for God to treat him this way! Even Job questioned himself! But then he was angry with God for the severity of his "judgement". He couldn't understand it!!!
But you know what?! God wasn't the one torturing him! The Devil was! Next time you wonder why God is putting you through such hardships, remember who it really is behind those things! God is the one who gets you through them. Nestle yourself into him!
