040724...The Book of Job- Why ME? The Goodness of God and the Suffering of Job

The book of Job is . . .
-a big book
-a true book
-a challenging book
-a clear book
-a book that points to Jesus

1. Bow before God’s sovereignty.
2. Gladly affirm God’s goodness.
3. Stop being surprised at suffering.
4. Put your complaining to death.
5. Move from “Why me?” to “Why you, Lord?” to “Why not me?”

What is your only comfort in life and in death?
-That I am not my own,
- but belong
—body and soul, in life and in death—
-to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.
