Good People Live Constantly Accused By Satan.

The devil's priority and purpose is to rally as many people against God as he can and to destroy the relationship that each of us has with God. This is important for us to know because our faith isn't tested when things are good- when we have money, time, and luxuries. Our faith is tested when things don't go our way. What happens when things don't go our way? Do we curse God?
Have you ever wondered why bad things happen all at once? In Job's story, the devil's purpose is to push Job to the breaking point, so that he will finally renounce God. When we ask God, "Why? Why did You let this happen? Why did You allow this to be?" God tells us to wait and see the whole story.
And try to remember that: Good people accept the good and the bad from God.
"…The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away;
Blessed be the name of the Lord."
Job 1:21-22
