I appreciate your story Nakazibwe! Your faith is certainly being tested, but s it will surely be refined. It 's so encouraging to see you still have deep faith. It 's also comforting to know, that just in the case of Job, these test come not from Jehovah God, but from Satan, and God only allows these test. As we saw with Job, Jehovah blessed Job with more than he had at first. So though God does allow us to go through certain trials, our refined faith is better than Gold! There is nothing that can be taken from us, that God can not give us.
