I am early for Monday. I read Job 20-21 on Sunday and 22-24 this morning.
Chapter 23 - Job begins the chapter boldly wanting to find God and contend with him about his situation, (he knows His answers). But by the end of the chapter he is terrified of God as he remembers His power and judgement. For me, I realize how easy it is to talk with God that I forget He is so Great and powerful and is fearful. But He has given me the way to not live always in that fear. So I feel comfortable in His presence and have His peace. So like Job I do have to remember His ways, power, almightiness. Btt I don't have to be terrified of Him, just have healthy dose of fear to remember to stay on the narrow way.
