Last week we learned about a man named Job. He was a good man who always listened and obeyed God. He loved God very much and always praised his name. He lost everything and still praised God, sometimes we just have a bad day. We can learn to praise God in the good times and the bad. What did Job lose? Did his friends and wife encourage Job or did they say he must have done something wrong because God was punishing him? How can we encourage our friends ? What happened to Job after Page 1

everything was taken away? Did he still praise God? How did God reward Job for enduring this trial? Job always trusted God and loved him through his very bad times. Psalms are poems, prayers and songs to God. We can pray and praise God in many different ways. Last week we praised God by being very quiet, still and doing praise postures.
