Job on knowing better than God…

At the end (well, almost the end) of one of literature’s great conversations, we see an apt reminder for us during those moments when we think we know better than God.

“Then Job answered the Lord and said: “I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted. ‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?’ Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know. ‘Hear, and I will speak; I will question you, and you make it known to me.’ I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you; therefore I despise myself, and repent in dust and ashes.””‭‭Job‬ ‭42:1-6‬ ‭ESV‬‬
