Day #26: The Fringe Of His Work

He spreads out the northern skies over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.
He wraps up the waters in his clouds,
yet the clouds do not burst under their weight.
He covers the face of the full moon,
spreading his clouds over it.
He marks out the horizon on the face of the waters
for a boundary between light and darkness....
By his breath the skies became fair;
his hand pierced the gliding serpent.
And these are but the outer fringe of his works;
~Job 26:7-11, 13,14a

I must apologize for the length of my excerpt. But I couldn't help it. Job's words made me smile. Today is the first day with blue skies all week. And on that day Job says 'By his breath the skies became fair'. I like it when God makes little things line up.

The 26th chapter of Job made me realize how awesome God is. Not just the 'whoa, dude, that was awesome!' kind of 'awesome'. The 'God-just-struck-AWE-into-me' 'awesome'.

I don't have much to say about Job 26. There is one thought that keeps repeating in my head as I read this chapter of Job. 'I love God. I love Him and everything about Him, and His marvelous works, and His wonderful awesomeness. I love God.'

Take a look out your window. Even if it's gray, think about God creating everything out there. Picture God spreading the northern skies over empty space. Picture God breathing to make the skies fair. And thank Him for it.

Thank you, God. I love you.
