“Where were you
when I laid the earth’s foundation?
Tell me, if you understand.
Job 38:4 (NIV)
Jesus, I see some people who love to live large. They know what they want, and they will do almost anything to get it. They live in a way that announces their presence. They try to do everything big—the best of everything—because they believe they deserve it. They are self-governing and unstoppable.
Until they aren’t.
But somedays I too have to be reminded that without You at the helm, there is no ship or sea. There is nothing—for You are the One who laid the earth’s foundation. Show me the way, God, for You alone know what living should look like!
Questions for Pondering…
When have I been temped to live by the world’s standards?
What was the outcome?
