Psalms: 127,128,134

Meditation

Job: Job is facing his day of reckoning. The LORD asks him rather pointed, if rhetorical, questions. All of Job’s questions remain unanswered, principally the question “Why?” For some reason, and I don’t think it’s presumptuous to ask, we think God owes us an explanation for His behavior. The LORD reminds Job, by His questions, just how great and fearsome He is. What can we learn from this? Trust. I think that God only wants us to be trusting in Him come what may.
