G.O.D.

This morning I simply feel the words of Job 42:1-6 resonating in my heart. I had a look at a couple of different translations, and Eugene Peterson's "The Message" relates the core of it all so awesomely.

After all the hardship and tough shizzle that Job had endured, he finally came to this realisation:

I’m convinced: You can do anything and everything.
Nothing and no one can upset your plans.
You asked, "Who is this muddying the water,
ignorantly confusing the issue, second-guessing my purposes?"
I admit it. I was the one. I babbled on about things far beyond me,
made small talk about wonders way over my head.
You told me, "Listen, and let me do the talking.
Let me ask the questions. You give the answers."
I admit I once lived by rumors of you;
now I have it all firsthand—from my own eyes and ears!
I’m sorry—forgive me. I’ll never do that again, I promise!
I’ll never again live on crusts of hearsay, crumbs of rumor.
- Job 42:1-6 (MSG)

My hope today is that we come to the full realisation of the fact that God is good...that God is faithful...that God is our provider...that God is our strength...that God is our hope...that God holds every aspect of our lives in the palm of His hand...that God is GOD.
