How we respond in our hearts to God, whether He’s permitting
suffering or bringing blessings into our lives, is everything to God.
My commentary says, “The hypocrites only heap up wrath as
they harden themselves against God. No
matter how much God disciplines them, they refuse to cry out for help. But the humble in heart get God’s message and turn
from their sins…. Job’s actions may
have been right – he wasn’t the sinner his friends described him to be – but his
attitude was wrong … Job was slowly
moving toward a defiant, self-righteous attitude that was not at all
healthy. It was this know-it-all attitude
that God exposed and destroyed when He appeared to Job and questioned him.”
Father, I want to remain humble before You. You are God and I count it an indescribable
privilege just to be able to pray to
You. You owe me nothing. Your grace and mercy are more than I could
ever dare ask or imagine. Thank You for
Your love!
Your Brother In Christ,
Gary Ford
