Learning Through Trials. Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

Job had it rough,
and Satan had
poured all his
resources into
bringing him down,

yet God knew
that even though
Job did not deserve it,
there were things
that Job needed
to learn through
the trials.

It is easy to get
comfortable when
things are going right.

We lose our edge
and start to sit
back and take
what we have
for granted.

Job was not at
this point yet,
but he still
believed that
his success was,
in part, his
own doing.

Near the end
of everything,
Job recognizes
that God can
do whatever
he wants and
nothing can
stop Him.

"I know that You can
do all things,
and that no
purpose of Yours
can be thwarted."
(Ref. to Book of Job ‭42: 2
in the Holy Bible)
