Job 1:18-19
[size=32]Job 1:18-19 King James Version (KJV)[/size]
18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
[size=32]Job 1:18-19 Good News Translation (GNT)[/size]
18 Before he had finished speaking, another servant came and said, “Your children were having a feast at the home of your oldest son, 19 when a storm swept in from the desert. It blew the house down and killed them all. I am the only one who escaped to tell you.”

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
18 Losing children is never easy but after losing all the things before things just seem to get worse for poor Job, he may be thinking what I am going to lose next and then the man comes with news that his children are dead.
19 A storm, Satan does not control the weather so this is God allowing Satan to have this on Job for God to show Satan. God does not allow bad things to happen to us for nothing job would be stronger in faith and give us his issue of pride due to all these things, if a storm comes our way, is it going to knock us out or just carry away our junk that God needed us to remove, that is what He allowed to happen to Job.

That's still so sad though.
