ASSURANCE
Today's reading: Job 21-22

"God is so great--higher than the heavens, higher than the farthest stars." Job 22:12 NLT

Job's friends didn't offer him, or us, many comforting words. They gave little consolation, if any, to their hurting friend. Actually, they left him in a deeper pit than he started in.

But every so often within their responses to Job, you'll find a tidbit of truth, an encouraging morsel, a sentence or two that helps the soul.

Like this morning's.

I needed to be reminded of God's greatness.

How big He is.

How He is everywhere.

How nothing, absolutely nothing, is outside of His reach.

For my heart.

For a friend who needs to know He will be beside her in the operating room.

For a loved one who is hurting, physically and mentally.

For the battles I will come up against today.

For a new believer I'm acquainted with.

For the stranger He will allow me to meet.

For the lies my enemy will tempt me with.

My God is so great!
