Job 42: 1-6 - The Message

Job answered God: "I'm convinced: You can do anything and everything. Nothing and no one can upset your plans. You asked, Who is this muddying the water, ignorantly confusing the issue, second-guessing my purposes? I admit it. I was the one. I babbled on about things far beyond me, made small talk about wonders way over my head. You told me, 'Listen, and let me do the talking. Let me ask the questions. You give the answers. I admit I once lived by rumors of you; now I have it all firsthand—from my own eyes and ears! I'm sorry—forgive me. I'll never do that again, I promise! I'll never again live on crusts of hearsay, crumbs of rumor."

Ok Jan... I was praying that you and your family were able to go away today.... But I truly hope you went to church or were able to hear Pastor Roosevelt Hunter. I know that I know Mark.4.35 was for you! It was a real wow moment for me. After hearing that phrase... Let us go to the other side over and over in my head while I ran on Sat. Morning while thinking of you Then trying to figure out where it was in the bible and why you and that phrase were put together. followed by sitting in church on Sunday and hearing a sermon preached on... Let us go to the other side..I can't even put into words how I felt. God is so awesome and encouraging. I am believing that He is with you in this storm and will give you inner peace and calm to face this journey. I am standing with you on this promise and the promise found in Matt 9.22.. Love ya...
