Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head, and he fell to the ground and worshiped. He said, “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked I shall return there. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD.” Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God. (Job 1:20-22, NASB)
Why did “Job [arise] and [tear] his robe and [shave] his head”, all signs of mourning? The LORD allowed Satan to test Job. He did so by destroying all Job’s oxen, donkeys, sheep, and camels; killing almost all of his servants; and killing all of Job’s sons and daughters. Job was a very prosperous man, with a wonderful family. He was wiped out all at once. But it’s important to see what he did immediately following these catastrophic events: “He fell to the ground and worshiped.”
Most of us would fall apart, or maybe even choose to curse God. But even after these events, although in mourning, Job chose to worship God! What an example! Job explains: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, And naked I shall return there. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD.” Job realized that God is in control. He had just lost everything, yet he chose to worship his God. We’re told, “Through all this Job did not sin nor did he blame God.”
What would we do following such disaster? Job is the example to follow. God is in control!
