Clockosophia

Doxology

The outcome-determining question in Job was whether Job would deny God on account of his sufferings. The crucible question for Christians is whether they will praise God in spite of their sufferings. Augustine said that it was no praisworthy thing never to have sinned from never having had the desire to do so. Likewise, it is of no account to praise Him when showered with Cherries from Heaven.
