Job

I am meditating on Job 1.

Job1:1 This man was blameless and upright; he feared God and shunned evil.

Job1:8 There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God  and shuns evil.

Job2:3 There is no one on earth like him; he is blameless and upright, a man who fears God and shuns evil. And he still maintains his integrity, though you incited me against him to ruin him without any reason.

The question is:

In what circumstance Job would sin? Job was not sinning in good times. Would he sin in bad times?

After a lot of suffering:

Job1:22 In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing. 

After more suffering: 

Job2:9-10 His wife said to him, “Are you still maintaining your integrity? Curse God and die!” He replied, “You are talking like a foolish woman. Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?”.  In all this, Job did not sin in what he said.

His suffering was a temptation to curse God, to see Him as unfair, to charge God with wrongdoing.

Is it possible that the Lord treats badly a blameless creature?

Yes. It is.

How is it possible to see Him as a just and good Lord despite suffering?

The answer is looking to his grace:

Job2:10 Shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?

Job1:21 The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised.

The losses are not real losses because everything came from him, so Job did not loose anything. He accepted the good and the bad things from the Lord. Everything was from Him: his prosperity, many serves, wealth but also, poorness and even his children killed. 

Although the text talks about Satan, Job ultimately sees the evil upon him coming from the Lord. 

I must learn with Job, to see the good and bad things that happens daily in my life, ultimately coming from the Lord.
