God’s wisdom is not, and never was, pledged to keep a fallen world happy, or to make ungodliness comfortable. Not even to Christians has He promised a trouble-free life; rather the reverse. He has other ends in view for life in this world than simply to make it easy for everyone.
–J. I. Packer
Wow. Great insight.
God is not all about health, wealth, and prosperity for His followers. Instead, God is all about glory being ascribed to His Holy Name. And that takes place when we follow the example of Job and praise God even when we are in the midst of the storm.
And when we do that, we will be in the center of His will and we will experience the abundant life of living in His presence, which is so much better than having health, wealth, or worldly prosperity!
