In a concluding survey of Job, Pastor Chuck Swindoll draws out seven lessons Job teaches us about ourselves.
We meet all sorts of people on our path. Some we meet only briefly, and yet God uses seemingly insignificant events to shape us. The people we meet on our path leave us forever changed, and we do the same for them.
Here’s a principle for life: Relationships are built on trust and trust is built on truth. Tell the truth.
