Job 42:3 “You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?’, Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.”
If you want to get a small insight into the mind of God, read Job38-42, He had listened to Job and his cronies for about as long as he could stand it. When He finally had listened long enough, He leaves no doubt as to who is God and who is a mere man. May God grant us the ability to say as Job, “I am unworthy – how can I reply to you? I put my hand over my mouth.” Perhaps its time to put our hand over our mouth and acknowledge God for who He truly is. When we give Him the honor and praise due Him, we begin to realize the difference between what is holy and what is mortal – what is justice and what is mercy.
