Daily Bible - Job's Wisdom

Today's reading is found in Job 40:6 to Job 42:17.

The theme for today must be found in the underlying challenge within what God says. He created the mightiest of the animals and all of them are subservient to Him. When Job thinks of this, his perspective is changed. He repents for his complaining and waits for God's judgment. God chastises Job's friends, tells them to offer sacrifices and has Job pray on their behalf, which God accepts. The rest of Job's life, he is blessed twice as much as he was before he was stricken. All because he was willing to accept God's plan and submit to his will.

On a side note: Scientists claim that the earth is billions of years old, but humans have been around for 100-200 thousand years and this was eons after the dinosaurs died out. Hmm. This doesn't match up with what my Bible reads. Consider the Leviathan that was mentioned in this reading. Scientists often say that this creature was a crocodile, nothing more. If you read the description, it mentions fire coming from it's mouth. When it rises, the mighty are afraid. Crocodiles don't have far to rise up, do they? Could this be the description of a dinosaur? Or dare I say a dragon of some sort? Remember, God said this so a human could be counseled, so that human had to have some knowledge of such a beast.
