Read: Job 38:1-11
When tragedy strikes, questions follow. Our loss of a loved one may lead us to ask God any number of pointed questions: Why did You let this happen? Whose fault was this? Dont You care about my pain? Believe me, as the grieving father of a teenager who died tragically I have asked these very questions.
The book of Job records the questions Job asks as he sits down with friends to lament his suffering. He had lost his family as well as his health and possessions. At one point, he asks, Why is light given to him who is in misery, and life to the bitter of soul? (3:20). Later, he asks, What strength do I have, that I should hope? (6:11). And, Does it seem good to You that You should oppress? (10:3). Many have stood near a headstone placed too early and asked similar questions.
But when you read all the way to the end of the book, you get a surprise. When God responds to Job (chs. 3841), He does it in an unexpected way. He turns the tables and asks Job questionsdifferent questions that show His wisdom and sovereignty. Questions about His magnificent creationthe earth, stars, and sea. And the questions all point to this: God is sovereign. God is all-powerful. God is love. And God knows what He is doing.
I suppose there will alot of these....

Interesting day today. No special plans as of yet, but ...
Thirty years ago today, I first met Mrs. Smith. On the Internet. (We were, errr, 12-year-old geniuses at the time, Yeah, that's the ticket!)
Struck up a conversation and the rest is history ... although these days she gets a little annoyed when I try to strike up a conversation. Well, if soccer's on or PBR or something.

I'd have been upset with any other result. President Reagan was the only one in my lifetime (born '65) that I was proud to have voted to put him in office, and was still happy about my vote at the end of his second term. God bless you, President Reagan!
