"The tests of life open the panorama of God's mercy to those who trust Him," Recab said while they were eating.Saul, Jemimah, their daughter Rebekah, Baanah, and Recab were at the dining table having breakfast. Abishai was with Ish-Bosheth in the children's room."The tests in life are not necessarily God's punishment for His children. Remember the story of Job. It was not God who inflicted troubles on Job. It was Satan. God allowed Satan to bring trouble and inflict pain on Job for a purpose. God wanted to test Job's faithfulness in Him. In the end, God blessed Job," Recab said."I don't know about you, Recab, but I don't want to go through the experiences of Job. Not only did he lose his businesses, he also lost his children and ended up with disease. That was very tragic and painful," Saul said."I wouldn't want to go through those experiences either. Who wants to suffer? I don't think anybody does," Recab replied.
