Job was willing to take the bad as well as the good without being mad at God. He stood the temptations of Satan, even when his wife and friend thought he should curse God. His obedience was rewarded in the end.

To know thyself.
To know that you´re here and it´s now.
But in fairness to poor Job, I´d´ve done the same thing.
For Satan to play all those games with him and for God to allow him to do it, just so they could setle a difference of opinion.
But the main part of it is when Job demands to know what´s going on here and calls on God Himself to show himself and explain all these atrocities that he´s suffered, which is fair enough, but the way God reminds him of his place in the world really illustrates the pieces of nothing that we are compared to the world around us that we completely ignore as we indulge and wallow in our over-inflated and useless egos and self-righteous opinions.

Basically, take a bath; sit up straight; wear a nice suit; eye to eye contact; and be knowledgeable in the job you are apply for. That’s the one that always gets me.

Patience, long-suffering - and *trust* - trust that all will be well in the end, even if the rational reason can see no way out|
