Job 38-39

The Lord speaks..

Out of the storm, God speaks.

God says: "“Who is this that obscures my plans 
   with words without knowledge? 
³ Brace yourself like a man; 
   I will question you, 
   and you shall answer me." (Job 38:2-3)

Another way of it is saying "Who is this darkening counsel? The words are not with wisdom. God is God! God created the world! He ordered the world! God knows what is best. Even if we do not know what goes on in our own lives, God is there and our constant. The stars do not answer to us. We were not made to know everything. Knowing everything is God's job, not ours. Our job is simply to obey Him and choose to follow Him even when we do not know where the path is leading and there is barely enough light to get us from point A to point B. We do not need to know the way to point Z. We need only to know who we are following, and that is the Lord God almighty!

God gives us understanding only because He is good. But, we do not need to know everything.. God knows the timing things happen, we do not. We need only to trust Him, and rely constantly on Him every moment of every day. His ways are not our ways, and He does not need to share with me the reasoning behind His ways..
