OUR WORDS
Today's reading: Job 21-22
"God is so great--higher than the heavens, higher than the farthest stars." Job 22:12 NLT
So go the words spoken to Job by his friend Eliphaz.
Inspiring words. God-focused words. Thought-provoking words. Words of hope given to a hurting friend...in between accusations.
Job's friends are not known for giving Job the most helpful or godly advice during his time of need. To be honest, most of their words were condemning and useless to a man broken far beyond what most of us have ever been. But in the middle of all their speeches you will find snippets of truth, phrases that encourage and words that are God-centered.
I hope that's what can be said of me.
I talk quite a bit. I have a comment on most things. I rarely hold back what I'm thinking, if not in word, then certainly by the expression on my face.
My prayer is that folks will hear about God in my conversations. All my conversations.
