WELL, HAVE YOU?
Today's reading: Job 37-38

"Have you ever commanded the morning to appear and caused the dawn to rise in the east?" Job 38:12 NLT

I'm having the kind of morning where I notice the smallest things. The birds chirping before the sun even comes up. The dandelions blooming across the yard. The rise and fall of a little one's chest as he sleeps. The color of the hayfield across from our house.

And then?

Then God takes it to a higher, grander level and presents me with the question He presented to Job all those years ago.

And I'm awed.

I'm reminded who I am not, but in Whose care and hands I live.

I'm reminded of what I cannot do, but in Whose power I trust.

I'm reminded of my limitations, my weaknesses and my inabilities.

I'm reminded that the most important hats I wear are 'part-time' jobs in comparison to His majesty and glory.

I'm slowed to remember Him and all He does for me.
