The Book of Job's Wisdom on How God Runs the World

  2. I will always love the detail that while Job got double his property he still got 10 children, because the other ten that have died are now waiting for him in heaven

  3. If god already knew everything about jobe shouldnt he have known what was in his heart and not have to do a “experiment”

  4. Sometimes suffering hurts even more when there is no clear reason.
    This story doesn’t explain pain away — it teaches us how to live with unanswered questions.
