Job 3:20 Why give light to the sufferer?                 Why life to the bitter in spirit?   Two in a day. I am about 10 months in and on the 10th chapter, so it is looking like 32 months to go.

 Job 3:19 There the small and the great are equal                 The slave, now free, beside his master.   I really like this verse. It is a foundation for being humble.

“In the Filth” – “Heart Right Love” – “Obligation to Death” – “Scattering Persecution” I saw a rainbow a few minutes ago. I thought of God and the promise made to Noah.

Job 3:17 There the wicked cease their raging,                 And there their victims are at rest.   I did not even see the “there their” when I put this together. It kind of stands out now and makes me want to change it, but maybe next time. I had so much going on today, I… Continue reading Job 35: Study 25: Job 3:17 – Rest
