*Mrs. Job's statement to her husband in the scripture represents some of the horrible women in the bible.
-She was also an example of a woman being tested & tried.
*You can condemed her if you want to, but every now & then we have asked God why, how come.
*Now at most churches, we dont focus on the weakness: we're blessed & highly favored.
-But if we cant be real in the church then we cant be real anywhere else.
*Mrs. Job was having private pillow talk.
-She raised the theological that we often ask God, why me? If God is good & if God is all powerful, why do bad things happen to good people?
*When hell breaks lose, we have to make a decision if we're going to be bitter or better? it's what separates the Saints from the Aint's
*We think if we had a reason then it will make it better, but life ain't fair.
*God says to us how dare you hold me hostage because I didn't do things the why you wanted me too.
*Faith is not the absence of doubt, but what you do inspite of the doubt.
*Every now & then there is no reason, but it has purpose.
-God is not vindictive, but he does allow things to happen so He can use it to grow us up.
-There are some things that we can only learn through our failure.
*Suffering is an invitation for us to either grow or die.
