Job 26 -

Job: Man’s Frailty and God’s Majesty
1 But Job answered and said:
2 “How have you helped him who is without power?
How have you saved the arm that has no strength?
3 How have you counseled one who has no wisdom?
And how have you declared sound advice to many?
4 To whom have you uttered words?
And whose spirit came from you?
5 “The dead tremble,
Those under the waters and those inhabiting them.
6 Sheol is naked before Him,
And Destruction has no covering.
7 He stretches out the north over empty space;
He hangs the earth on nothing.
8 He binds up the water in His thick clouds,
Yet the clouds are not broken under it.
9 He covers the face of His throne,
And spreads His cloud over it.
10 He drew a circular horizon on the face of the waters,
At the boundary of light and darkness.
11 The pillars of heaven tremble,
And are astonished at His rebuke.
12 He stirs up the sea with His power,
And by His understanding He breaks up the storm.
13 By His Spirit He adorned the heavens;
His hand pierced the fleeing serpent.
14 Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways,
And how small a whisper we hear of Him!
But the thunder of His power who can understand?"

Recently, I have been reading through Job, and this chapter really has stayed in my mind, and captured my thinking, and so I thought I'd put it up for ya'll to read. :) I love the last verse of it, verse 14: "Indeed these are the mere edges of His ways, and how small a whisper we hear of Him! But the thunder of His power who can understand?" .
I had some amazing (ok, not really) thoughts all typed up, but the font and size went crazy, and it was deleted. (sigh) But - WOW! These are the mere edges of His ways, and how small the whisper that we hear of Him! How much is hidden from our sight while we live on earth! And the thunder of His power only God alone can understand!! Wow! Just so amazing, what a wonderful chapter - I do believe I will put this one to memory, or endeavor to. :)
How amazing the One we praise!
Who hung the earth on nothing!!!

  1. Glory to our God! To think that we shall live with Him for eternity and never fully understand Him!
    Oh the depth of the riches both of
    the wisdom and knowledge of God!
    How unsearchable are His judgments,
    and His ways past finding out!
    -Romans 11:33
