#30 Not having to have all the answers

Reading Job has taught me that I don't have to have all the answers. Job was complaining about all the things that were happening to him, and pondering the question "why do bad things happen to good people" like so many of us do. Then God speaks through a storm and proves to Job that HE is in control, everything that has happened on this earth HE created, HE formed, HE is in charge of. Job finally responds with "Surely I spoke of things I did not understand, things too wonderful for me to know." (Job 42:3). Some things we aren't meant to understand, aren't meant to know. We don't have to have all the answers. We can just rest in the knowledge that God does.
