JOB - AN INTERESTING NOTE |
Hi all,
Just an interesting note about Job. Did you realize
that at the end, God asked Job 84 questions in a row
and Job could not/did not answer one of them?
So what was it that Job learned from His encounter?
What was it God taught Job probably more so than anyone
else in the Bible?
Humility before the awesome power of God.
"I remember the days of old; I meditate on all thy
works; I muse on the work of thy hands."
- Psalm 143:5
Muse = To be absorbed in one's thoughts; engage in
meditation.
In other words, to "muse", is to think upon deeply.
The opposite of "muse", is "amuse". It means literally
(going back a ways), "to not think".
Then, they mused upon the works of God's hands.
Today, we have whole parks dedicated to "not thinking".
They're called, "amusement parks". :)
Just something to "muse" about. :)

No, and I was reading Job 37 today, but got side tracked.
