Then, God spoke. My bible reading has been in the book of Job, and today, chapter 38, God finally spoke. In the first two chapters of Job, we can read the conversation between God and Satan, but 36 chapters after that God is silent. When God finally does speak, He does not answer Job's many questions about his circumstance. Instead, God helps Job realize God's greatness through His control of all creation.
12 "Have you ever given orders to the morning,
or shown the dawn its place,
13 that it might take the earth by the edges
and shake the wicked out of it?
25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
and a path for the thunderstorm,
26 to water a land where no man lives,
a desert with no one in it,
27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland
and make it sprout with grass?
"God used Job's ignorance of the earth's natural order to reveal his ignorance of God's moral order. God's point was that if Job could not explain such common events in nature, how could he possibly explain or question God? And if nature is beyond our grasp, God's moral purpose may not be what we imagine either."
Sad face. Maryland lost in the second round. They lost to Michigan St., a team ranked one seat lower than them. Sighs. That's alright. I'll still wear my Maryland shirt proudly. Speaking of sports, I don't feel as sore as I normally do after playing in the park. I've learned my lesson from the past, and I remembered to stretch before running around. It works wonders. Hah. Even though I'm not as sore, I still feel just as tired. It didn't help that I slept late last night after post-processing and uploading 101 pictures. it took me about 2 hours, but I enjoy post-processing so I didn't really notice the time go by.
I start two new classes today: Evangelism and Intro to Missions. I'm looking forward to these classes. I know I'll benefit a gread deal from them.
There has been a case of disappearance that has been hard not concern myself with. People keep coming to me to inquire, and I don't know what else to tell them other than what I've been told myself. Sometimes, I fear this disappearance will simply not reappear again.
