Worship

As I was reading this morning, I came across this:

Job 1:20-22 (NIV)

At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship and said:

"Naked I came from my mother's womb,
and naked I will depart.
The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away;
may the name of the LORD be praised."

In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.

At the first sight of adversity in Job's life, he fell to the ground in worship... It makes me reevaluate how I deal with pain and difficult in my life. Do I worship first? Or do I complain first?

What do you do?
