Today we have finally reached the finish line and suddenly God speaks to Job "out of the storm". As I write there's a storm brewing outside. I can see the lightning flashing across the dark sky and the thunder rumbling. It's pretty incredible to watch, but can you imagine hearing God speak in the midst of a storm?!
Sometimes the storm of life is just like the one I'm watching outside. It rumbles and intimidates, and it make you want to hide inside. However, like Job, I would like to be close enough to God that I can hear His voice and see His power in my life, "My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you (Job 42:6)."
Wow! That was a beautiful way to illustrate it. I agree that if it takes a storm in my life to get to see God, then it is worth it. I feel like there is just so much more to see and know about our God, and I want all He will give me. I guess He knows we can only handle so much knowledge of Him at a time. :) Our God is awesome and powerful, yet good and kind. I'm so glad to be His!
