"The Lord blessed the latter part of job's life more than the first." Job 42:12 Job's life looked pretty good prior to the storm of one trial after the next. Yet, he remained faithful to God through the most trying and difficult time in his life. And God blessed his latter days even more than the first! |

This latter part of our life is so much richer than the first part was...God has truly blessed us. Last year we faced a storm we thought was unbearable but He brought us through!

Wow...now those are some scary skies. Love this promise. I read that chapter today. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI love the book of Job! Thank you so much for sharing this. Simple things like this really touch me the most.
ReplyDeleteOh so timely a truth, I needed to hear that today!
ReplyDeleteI love the book of Job also. How blessed he truly was.
ReplyDeleteThe day we came home from the hospital without our daughter (she died in april '08), I picked up John Piper's book about Job. I read it cover to cover that afternoon. It was such a turning point for me...to cling to Him in the midst of the storm. Thank you for this beautiful reminder. The photo is perfect...
ReplyDeleteI've been in a season of trials for longer than I'd prefer. But I'm trusting the Lord and my eyes and ears are open for the lessons I may need to learn. Job has been a good example for me to praise God in the midst of the storm. A timely post for me.
ReplyDeleteblessings and love,
