Job keyword: prayer Job 42:8 - Now therefore take seven bulls and…

- - - - that there is none like him on the earth, pa blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil
    - - what motive ?
    - - “Does Job fear God for no reason?
      - Have you not put qa hedge around him and his house and all that he has, on every side?
      - hypothesis: You have rblessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But sstretch out your hand and ttouch all that he has, and he will ucurse you vto your face.
    - - God asked the same question to Santan, "From where you have come?"
      - Santan replied with the same answer initially
        
        From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.
      - God replied with the same intially
        
        Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?
        
        knowing how Job reacted with his integrity to the Santan's attack without reasons
        
        He still nholds fast his integrity, although you incited me against him to destroy him owithout reason.
      - Santan had a similar reply to incite God to challenge Job
        
        Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life. 5 But pstretch out your hand and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will qcurse you to your face.
      - God finally permitted Santan to
        
        Behold, he is in your hand; only spare his life.
        
        It is more severe than the initial level because this time Santan might stretch his hand on him but just required to keep him alive
  - - - Then Job arose and ctore his drobe and eshaved his head fand fell on the ground and worshiped
        
        In all this Job did not sin or charge God with lwrong.
    - - a great wind came across bthe wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead
    - - the Sabeans fell upon them and took them and struck down the servants3 with the edge of the sword
      - The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants and consumed them,
      - The Chaldeans formed zthree groups and made a raid on the camels and took them and struck down the servants
    - - Job lamented his birth
        
        sighing
        
        groaning
        
        fear and dread befall him
        
        not at ease, nor quiet, trouble, no rest

- - - - If i am a comforter, make me a channel of Your Peace to understand, pray and comforming the recipient
        
        with anger, is it a good timing to counsel?
        
        comforter is not to judge but stand by to listen and think in a wider perspective
        
        People judge others based on their own assumption and experience
        
        Attitude: be warm , listening but not to say say in everything,, directly addressing the needs of attention and communication but what are sufficient and what are not necessary (be honest, pleasant and nice), standby him/her bur not attached in the problem or sin
        
        I believe that everyone or a group of people should breakthrough the issue on himself or herself or themselves.
      - Don't react too early and take to get to know the things
        
        People tend to give an explanation to a phenomenon without carefully understanding the situation and development.
        
        mind using and conclusive words
        
        using more interrogative words and search for info
      - be prudent to know the full picture and how some crucial elemnts interrelated among them
      - If it is a personal thing, let the person involved discover and answer the question on his/her own
    - - I think pray may ask God to accept one's plea or change the situation
      - God allows good or bad things happened.
    - - Is it the only reason when a disaster or afflictions befell oneself?
      - There are other common reasons due to the connectivity of people and nature in the world, e.g. pandemic
