This week we are continuing the book, titled "How God Makes Men" by Patrick Morley.

Chapter 8 talks about the story of Job, who started out as one of the wealthiest men in his land and quickly lost everything. Job endured suffering which, from his perspective was for no apparent reason. The story of Job is a powerful one, even though he was suffering, he lost his children, his wife told him to forsake God. His friends came against him calling him to repent because "surely he has wronged God", but Job knew he was righteous and while he didn't understand why God was allowing it to happen. He never cursed God, he complained, sure, but he did not curse God. He endured, he asked questions, and by the end of Job he is restored, and the later years of his life was blessed even more than his earlier years.

Sometimes, we won't know the reason why God allows things to happen, and it's important we continue to praise God, to turn to God during those times. There are times when God will allow these things to happen to test our faith, to see if we are ready to be increased. Other times things happen because we have disobeyed, or because God wants to bring correction.
