I finished reading the book of Job this morning.
I've read Job before, several times, and I'm always struck by just how bad things got for Job. What a nightmare. There have been seasons in my life (not unlike my present one) where I am compared to Job by someone (or several someones) because of the seeming unrelenting nature of a particular struggle.
But wow. Job had it bad.
And my life is good. Not without struggle, but very, very good.
I'm grateful.
I guess I would sum up the book of Job this way...
GOD IS BIG.
I AM SMALL.
I'm okay with that.
Thanks for the reminder!
