of god s love than material wealth yet the book of job records the return of double prosperity to the hero of the drama gifts were showered upon him and he spent the remaining years of his life in the security of plenty it is interesting to contrast this point of view with the vows of poverty taken bj many religious people in the nine teen christian centuries st francis of asslsl for instance left no such estate as the patriarch joo could fa- job their experience was part of through sacrifices and apologize to queath yet we are agreed that st francis made a distinguished success of his life judged by all spiritual standards christian people must soon come to a definite understand ing as to the limits of acquisitiveness too often we idealize renunciation but practice the gospel of getting on in the world it is stern discipline to love god for himself and not for the sake of expected gifts jobs greatest heroism was displayed during poverty and pain poetic justice 12 13 as a story the
