As I posted back in December, I am reading through the book of Job. After about a month and a half and reading over and over each word and chapter carefully, I have finally finished it. It probably shouldn't have taken me that long but I kinda love that it took me that long. I am so amazed by this book! Here are some of my thoughts...
At first, I thought Job's friends had some good points. (5:17-18; 34:19,21; 37:14) I then continued to read on and their words soon become too ridiculous for words. (chapter 36 says it all) I also admire for Job's responses. (9:12; 12:13; 13:15; 14:5; 19:25-27; 42:2) Even though the worst things have happened to him, he continues to put his faith in Christ and not in his friends. One of the most amazing things I read (and I made sure to share with all my roommates), was 38:31-32. God talks about constellations. Not only are these constellations that He just mentions but they still exist! We even now look into the sky and see His marvelous works that he talks about thousands of years ago! How amazing is that! It puts me in awe and wonder of how else He connects the world back then to things of this day and age.
