“Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said, Who is this that darkeneth counsel By words without knowledge? Gird up now thy loins like a man; For I will demand of thee, and answer thou me.”
Job 38:1-3 KJV
Finally, God answered Job from the eye of a violent storm. He said: “Why do you confuse the issue? Why do you talk without knowing what you’re talking about? Pull yourself together, Job! Up on your feet! Stand tall! I have some questions for you, and I want some straight answers”. How many will question God - why did this happen to me, God, I don’t deserve this? Are you real, God, can you even understand my pain? There is so much evil in this world, do you really care, God? We make God out of our imagination and ignore the wonder and awesomeness of God, even in nature and the universe! David saw it and wrote, “The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.” When we are absorbed with the self, we will not see or know God, nor understand why He loves mankind. For here is the way God loved the world—He gave His only, unique Son as a gift. So now everyone who believes in Him will never perish but experience everlasting life. When God questioned Job, he couldn’t answer. Mankind cannot understand why God loves us so much, we just believe and receive His love like a child. Amen!
