Sunday

His wife said, “Still holding on to your precious integrity, are you? Curse God and be done with it!” He told her, “You’re talking like an empty-headed fool. We take the good days from God—why not also the bad days?” Not once through all this did Job sin. He said nothing against God. (Job‬ ‭2:9)

A friend of mine (with a most beautiful heart), has physically degenerated over the years to the point where he can’t now speak normally and is wheelchair bound.

He knows Jesus and his words extremely well. He studied at Bible college and has had so many healing hands rubbed on his head over the years that it’s a wonder he isn’t bald!

I’ve watched him get angry (very angry), angry enough to do some very stupid things. I seen him suffer in his hurt (so much pain). I’ve heard his broken voice get loud and spout bitter (very, very ugly) things. And I’ve seen him tearful, pitifully sorrowful and heart crushingly sad.

Yes he hates what he’s going through, and I’m sure that he’d give ANYTHING for this nightmare to end, but through all this I’ve never seen him curse GOD or blaspheme His Name.

Through his fight I’ve learned that strength doesn’t come from bending iron or accumulated knowledge, or manipulating people’s emotions. It comes from an inner Peace that the world doesn’t understand.

To the blind – he’s going through hell.

To those that can see – he’s on the move towards Heaven. ❤️
