Job was tempted sorely by Satan. He faced loss after loss and pain after pain as Satan desperately tried to dislodge his faith. His story is one that makes me wince, knowing the pain he had to suffer and the trials he went through. But his story is also warming - despite it all, he kept his faith. Despite it all, he knew that God still loved him and had not forsaken him.

"But it is still my consolation, And I rejoice in unsparing pain, That I have not denied the words of the Holy One." Job 6:10



There are other verses, as well, that may bring some comfort.

"Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also." John 14: 1-3

There will no longer be any curse; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and His bond-servants will serve Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. And ther will no longer be any night; adn they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illumine them; and they will reign forever and ever. Revelation 22:3-5

"But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings; and you will go forth and skip about like calves from the stall. You will tread down the wicked, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day which I am preparing," says the Lord of hosts. Malachi 4:2

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, adn with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:9-10
