Job 1-3

Those trials that Job faced threatened to overwhelm him. He lost almost everything that came from his labor plus the children he had raised. He knew God was the great provider but he saw no divine provisions in these most recent events. Since he would not blame God he sought to find an end to his misery. And the only escape he saw was through death. But he knew that was God's domain as well. So he sought that release from his Lord. Job is an example to me; when trials seem to be overwhelming turn you attention to God our provider.
