Job 36 September 14, 2008

Verses 22-25: God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him? Who has prescribed his ways for him, or said to him, ‘You have done wrong’?  Remember to extol his work, which men have praised in song.  All mankind has seen it; men gaze on it from afar.

Reflection: I love God so much.  Some things are going on in my family right now, and it is so comforting to know that all this pain I am feeling, I can just offer up to God.  There is no teacher like him, no caregiver like him.  No one else I know can take all of my worries away.  All I have to do is ask.

Prayer: Thank you lord, I love you

Job 35 September 9, 2008

Reflection: Right now in school we are reading “the crucible”, and I just can’t stop thinking about all of those women who were hanged for being “witches”  They went through trials just like Job, but their faith remained strong and consistent.  I think God was trying to tell the people of Salem not to prosecute those women, but they were ignorant to his messages.  I wonder if the prosecutors are in heaven?

Prayer: Lord give me strength like the women in the salem witch trials.  They endured so much but remained true to you.
