Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped. And he said:
“ Naked I came from my mother’s womb,
And naked shall I return there.
The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away;
Blessed be the name of the LORD.”
(Job 1:20-21)
After all, when life collapses for you like it did for Job, who do you have left but God? You could pull back, build up walls, pretend that people don't care, close up, act like God doesn't understand. But when circumstances happen, and you can't see past yourself, its the perfect time to ask God to help you see beyond what your human eyes perceive, to look through the eyes of the Father that made your very being. He knows the plans. He knows your future. And it is good.
