Job 1:13-22

Summary: Satan gets to work. Through a series of messengers, Job hears of several calamities: his livestock are all captured, his servants are slain and, in what can only seem to him to be divine judgement, his sons and daughters are killed when the house they are in collapses. Job mourns, but does not sin in cursing God. 

Response: Now I know I probably would've failed this test. I would've at least asked God why a few hundred times by that point. Even in this earliest of stories, could this be the Holy Spirit propping Job up? I mean, I'm just dumbstruck by this effort. Lord, help me to trust you even half as much as this man.
