Faith. Job and the old Devil.

“Come to me, all you that are weary and carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

-Matthew 11 

I was reading commentary on Job, and the author was flustered with the material, positively astounded that Job's friends took him to task so.  They accused him of sin, of course, with no evidence and assumed that God was visiting wrath on poor Job.

But quite not.  It was the work of the Devil, of course, and in the end, God lifted up Job and restored everything from prior, back into Job's life.  That's a sown seed: Job's faith.
