Curse God and Die!
"Curse God and die!"
That is what Job's wife
Had to say with her life
Job 2:9 may encourage
Men with wayward wives
Who twist and torment
Their devout spiritual lives
She sought to discourage
The meek man of God
To whom she was married
She claimed God tarried
Denied the poor old soul
As he laid in a bed of illness
Waiting to be healed and whole
Job's wife defiantly belief to
Get him to give up all hope
Doubt, vacillate, and struggle
Be overwhelmed and beyond
The stability that anchors
The tranquility that subdues
The faith the quietly conquers
Silencing nasty gnawing negativity
That tries to sink you devilishly
Job would not join her pity party
Job dared to believe unashamedly
Job continually worshipped happily
Job endured trials wholeheartedly
Refused to waver with hostility
Stood firm, abiding faithfully
Encouraging himself inwardly
Always arising expectantly
Awaiting God to miraculously
Wipe away his hurt and pain
Shut the accuser's mouth
Bind every evil adversary
Provide and give prosperity
Fill him with divine ability
To lift up his head proudly
Concerning God Almighty
Who He knew in victory
Inwardly and outwardly
Job's faith produced fully
Proved always in vogue and truthful
God showed Himself powerful
Vindicating Job suddenly
Against every lying enemy
Sadly his wife was among
That pathetic principal company
Nevertheless Job withstood
Such cruel hurtful mediocrity
Holding fast to his destiny
Job received double suddenly
When God turned his captivity
Slapped success on Job mightily
Giving him double for his trouble
Lifting him far above the rubble
Of his dreadful, difficult past
Job greatly showed humanity
That pain doesn't always last
Truth does forever remain
The pure will always endure
Therefore be tender and true
No matter what we go through
Uphold God and not disdain
Challenges and deep pain
Because God can rearrange
Change all in Jesus Name!
The God of the resurrection
Blesses the weak and lame
And the critic's tongue tame.
