Renewed and Assured

Job 42:2-3 "I know that you can do all things; no plan of yours can be thwarted.  You asked, 'Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?' Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know."

This statement from Job comes after God has questioned him at the end of the book.  This is currently where I am with God.  I have questioned God and his timing, knowing full well that He knows what He is doing, but still questioning.  I have been reminded by Him that He has a plan and a purpose and He will not be deterred.  I have been assured that I have spoken of things I do not understand and things that I cannot even begin to fathom their enormity or awesomeness.  This is the God we serve.  He is the one who created something from nothing.  Who wrote all of our days in His book before one ever came to be.  He knows us better than we know ourselves.  Trust is my word for this school year.  And trust I will do.  I have been renewed...again.  Praise the Lord that He doesn't give up on me!
