Something interesting . . .

I read something interesting today about a man named Job . . .

"Job wanted to die and be forgotten but instead God made sure his name and story would be remembered forever. Rather than give Job what he asked for, God gave future generations what they would need -- an inside look at the spiritual battle between God and Satan. The result is a God-inspired document about suffering that has comforted countless people.

When what we fear actually happens, we know, thanks to Job, that God can use it for good." Julie Ackerman Link
I thought that was encouraging . . . it's good to remember that God doesn't disregard our lives -- even when plans He has are not the plans we have.
