think about it

daryl and i were walking to the atm after church today..

daryl, what would you do if you were Job?

that question stemmed from my thoughts from last night that i hadn't managed to clear up.. as a result, i was rather deep in thought the whole morning. my question was eventually thrown back at me.

it was as though i had the answers to my unresolved "thoughts" locked in the back of my head. and it was only when i answered daryl that i unlocked the chest and fished out the answers.

God allowed Job to go through all that crap. was it fair? no. but God would definitely not have allowed it if He knew that it was too much for Job to bear. it's a promise that we will not be given more than we can take on, and that we would be equipped with all that's necessary. if i were in Job's position, i'm sure God would have prepared me for it. and in my opinion, that is how God is just. He's not a big bully, come on. :D dont forget that God blessed Job soooooo richly after that!

i can't wait to hear bout today's sermon at crossculture!
