Job: A Lesson in Humility
by Cori Strathmeyer
Director of Healthy Living

Luke 4:13
“For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
 
I was sitting in a chair at the dinner table, my father angry, left hand on his hip and right arm extended and shaking. As my mother placed our meal onto the table, I stated that "meatloaf is disgusting and canned green beans are gross." That comment kicked off my dad's tirade.
