Whoa!
So many questions here. Literally every line is a question.
Usually when we read about an interaction with God. He is very "to the point" and short.....I am that I am.....that sort of thing. I think he is trying to prove a point here to Job.
I'm paraphrasing what I gather from his questions.
"Don't think you are pure, and my equal.....let me remind you of a few that I've done and are doing.......things that you take for granted or maybe don't even see."
Point taken.
I sometimes feel that awe of creation when I'm out in the boat fishing.....looking over the vastness of the water, and seeing the shore-line off in the distance. It makes me realize how small I am. Like a little white and green bobber floating on the surface of his handywork. I haven't had the chance to do that this year. We were over there for the 4th, but somehow we couldn't make it work to go out.
Sad.
I miss the Labor Day weekend too. What's it look like for you guys this year? Luke still playing football?
tp
it was interesting how the entire passage is a question not a statement and he does make you think of little things that he has created that I give no thought about, and if he can do that then of course he is taking care of the things I think are a big deal.
ReplyDeleteLabor Day at your parents often gave me that time of reflection and I really miss it and seeing you guys. Yes Luke has football, so until he gives that up or graduates which I don't even want to think about that weekend will probably be out us. we should see if there is a way to plan another weekend, even if it means taking a day of vacation and pulling kids out of school which we have never done.
