REQUESTS OR DEMANDS
Today's reading: Job 37-39, 1 Corinthians 10:14-11:1, Psalm 137

"Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me, if you know so much." Job 38:4 NLT

The Lord and I were talking this morning.

Well, I was talking--and He, well He was listening, like the gentleman He is, to my goings-on.

I spoke in regards to the list of requests I still held in my heart.

The things I needed Him to do.

The people I needed Him to change.

The circumstances I just knew would be prime opportunities for Him to step in to and make a scene.

I offered Him suggestions.

I laid out my plans for Him to approve and to follow.

I gave well thought out suggestions.

I pretty much laid out a game plan and asked Him to follow.

Then I read this verse.

And I got quiet.

Very quiet.
