Job did not sin by accusing God after he lost all his possessions and his family. Even after losing his health, when his wife incited him to charge God with wrongdoing, Job simply called her comments foolish, and said (Job 2:10 ESV) :

“Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?"

And “In all this Job did not sin with his lips” (same verse). What a man this Job was! There he sat with painful boils over his entire body, and yet he receives this horrible curse as if it were the same as a blessing. He trusts his Lord!

Father, make me as steadfast in my trust in you as your servant Job. Let me never forget that both good and evil come our way, but we are to rejoice in you through every circumstance. How hard this is, yet how core to our faith. I believe! Lord, help my unbelief (Mark 9:24).

I was studying Job this morning in my devotional time. Job 1. As the story goes, Job loses everything except his health. All his children are killed by a storm, and bandits steal or destroy everything he has. Death and destruction characterize his life. What does he do? (Job 1:20-22 ESV)

Then Job arose and tore his robe and shaved his head and fell on the ground and worshiped. 21 And he said, "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD." 22 In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrong.

What an amazing saint! He grieves in worship on his face before the living God who never does wrong. He realizes his context. Job acknowledges the rights of his creator.

Lord, make me like that! I don’t want the death and destruction. That’s not what I mean, although it is your right to do what you want with your own creation. But give me the same heart you gave Job. When I grieve, Holy Spirit let me grieve in worship. In my loss, Jesus, let me see that all I need I have in you. Father, my Creator, let me always rest in your gracious provision. Holy Trinity, you have given me all I need, and I need nothing else. Let me live in poverty of things, but the riches of my inheritance: You!
