How Do We React?

Job 38:1-3 ESV
(1) Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
(2) "Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
(3) Dress for action like a man; I will question you, and you make it known to me.


I think this passage pretty much speaks for itself. Who are we to question God? Yet how often do we do it?

Any time we think we know better than God we are certainly darkening counsel by words without knowledge. Of course, we don't think that we ever take that attitude. I would challenge you to examine your questionings. I think it's good to wrestle with the evil in the world. However, we can't let that put ourselves ahead of God and His inscrutable ways.
