Accept trouble from God

Job 2:9-10

2:9 "His wife said to him, "Are you still holding on to your integrity? Curse God and die!"
2:10 He replied, "You are talking like a foolish woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?"


約 伯 記 2:9-10

2:9 他 的 妻 子 對 他 說 、 你 仍 然 持 守 你 的 純 正 麼 . 你 棄 掉 神 、 死 了 吧 !
2:10 約 伯 卻 對 他 說 、 你 說 話 像 愚 頑 的 婦 人 一 樣 。 噯 、 難 道 我 們 從 神 手 裡 得 福 、 不 也 受 禍 嗎 ?

Do we only accept only what is good from the Lord, and everything goes smoothly in our lives? Is that what we expect as a Christian? Obviously not.

Life is meant to be difficult as a Christian. There will be trouble and it is not an easy road. In this passage, Job accepted the challenge and he did not sin in what he said.
