* Job’s attitude in the midst of his struggle is what we should all ascribe to have.

* He did not see his stuff or his family as his own.

* He was poor in spirit - this is someone God can use because He can trust you.

* Notice two aspects of Job’s response:

* 1) His heart-set (vs 20) - he had a heart to worship.

* Worship is “reverence and adoration of a diety.”

* 2) His mind-set (vs 21) - everything I have is borrowed.

* Two parts to this:

* ** Birth - I came with nothing.

* Imagine a woman trying to give birth to a kid with a backpack.

* ** Death - I leave with nothing.

* Imagine an old man packing a suitcase so he could bring it with him when he died.

* Neither will work.

* This is the greatest business example we could have - be naked to it!

* Don’t wrap your emotions up with your success.

* Don’t find your identity in what you do.

* You can’t bring anything with you because you brought nothing with you.

* Now be free, work hard, and let the chips fall where they may.
