The Grands Letter (GLJ)
Gene L. Jeffries, Th.D. on August 23, 2017 8:40 am (CST)Dear Grands,
Job 11:7, “’Can you discover the depths of God?
Can you discover the limits of the Almighty?’”
At some point and in some way, we’ve all thought
to ourselves, “I’m pretty smart.” Well, we’re not!
And if you won’t take my word for it, read the Book
of Job. At one point, the LORD says to Job,
“”…I will ask you, and you instruct Me!” (Job 38:3).
Then, the LORD lays question after question on Job in
chapter 41 (I counted 71!). After that, Job pleads with God,
“’…I have declared that which I did not understand,
Things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
4 ‘Hear, now, and I will speak; I will ask Thee, and
do Thou instruct me’” (42:3-4).
It’s interesting that what we seek to know today through
“true science” and with all our modern technology, is a
search to discover what God already knows and spells
out for Job! No, we’re not as smart as we think. The
LORD spoke through the Psalmist when he said, “Be still,
and know that I am God….” (Ps. 46:10). So, we had
best trust His Word. He is able and willing to bless the
humble; but is equally able to crush the proud.
We continue to love and pray for you daily,
Nana & Dado III
