What are some of your goals for the next 10 Years?
Anyone say “lose a really close friend or loved one”?
How about “struggle finding a job and struggle to pay your bills”?
Anyone think “I am planning on getting cancer or injured in some way that my future is really in question?”
Broken relationships, job loss, infertility...
Why are those things not on our goals lists?
Because we have high expectation for our lives- which is not a bad thing.
But we also have presumptions for our lives- which can be damaging.

Was it God’s Will for Job’s life to be destroyed?
Yes
Why?
We learn much later in the book of Job that God’s desire for Job is for him to TRUST THE LORD.
Even when life seems to be against us, when or seem like they are not for us.
Remember the words of God to Job.
job 38 4-
He goes on for 2 chapters, and then...
job 40 1
and Job
job 40:
Job wasn’t critical of God at first
He trusted God and worshipped Him
But at time went on, and accusers came and Job’s suffering led him to ask questions.
God’s answer is simply “I know what I am doing.”
