Happy Funday Sunday! I am going to jump rite into todays Bible from Job 37. Its a little long, but I think there is a lot to be learned about Jobs perspective of God. “The thunder and lightning frighten me; my heart pounds in my chest. 2 Listen to God’s thundering voice! Listen to the sound coming from his mouth. 3 He sends his lightning to flash across the whole sky. It lights up the earth from one end to the other. 4 After the flashes of lightning you can hear his roaring voice. He thunders with his wonderful voice! And while his voice thunders, the lightning flashes continue. 5 God’s thundering voice is amazing! He does great things that we cannot understand. 6 He says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth.’ And he says to the rain, ‘Pour down on the earth.’ 7 God does this to stop everyone’s work and to show the people he made what he can do. 8 The animals run into their dens and stay there. 9 Whirlwinds come from the south. The cold winds come from the north. 10 God’s breath makes ice and freezes even large bodies of water. 11 He fills the clouds with water and scatters his lightning through them. 12 He orders the clouds to be blown all around the earth. The clouds do whatever he commands. 13 He causes the clouds to punish people with floods or to water his earth and show his love. 14 “Job, stop for a minute and listen. Think about the wonderful things God does. 15 Do you know how God controls the clouds? Do you know how he makes his lightning flash? 16 Do you know how the clouds hang in the sky? This is just one of the amazing works of the one who knows everything. 17 All you know is that you sweat, your clothes stick to you, and all is still and quiet when the heat wave comes from the south. 18 Can you help God spread out the sky and make it shine like polished brass? 19 “Job, tell us what we should say to God! We cannot think of what to say because of our ignorance.[a] 20 I would not tell God that I wanted to talk to him. That would be like asking to be destroyed. 21 A person cannot look at the sun. It is too bright as it shines in the sky after the wind blows the clouds away. 22 In the same way God’s golden glory shines from the Holy Mountain.[b] He is surrounded by the brightest light. 23 We have seen that God All-Powerful really is all powerful! But he is just and never treats anyone unfairly.[c] 24 That is why people fear and respect him. He shows no respect for those who think they are wise.” God and all his wonders, should be making us say WOW...WOW...WOW, wow...WOW!!! With his words alone he created the Heavens and Earth, stars, planets whole solar systems. We still havent built a telescope that can see all God has created...that makes me go WOW! And he still knows each and everyone of us soooo intimately, he knew the moment we were being formed in our mothers womb. He knows the number of hairs on our head, that alone makes me go WOW...because its ever changing! You ever catch yourself giving God advice during prayer? Yeah me too. No one can explain why floods, tornados, fires...all kinds of destruction. Why some people die, and others live. We are not supposed to know. Thats why we should Fear and Respect the Lord, none of us know when our time is up here on earth. HUG PRAY LOVE EVERYBODY♥, not just when its convenient or fun...but ALL the TIME♥♥♥
