“Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.

“Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself?

You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my plans without knowledge?’ Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know.

 “I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has. 

Lord God my Father,

I am nothing without your heart in me. Help me to gain your wisdom by becoming still enough to know you. Your way is perfect and I am made stronger in my struggles. Show me how to put your will first and keep my emotions in check so I don’t distort your way. Make me wise and show me when to reveal it and not before.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
