Job 6:24 Teach me, I shall be silent, Where I have erred, make me understand. (Written 3/9, Posted 3/30 ) The humble student. Who can find?

Job 6:23 Deliver me from the clutches of my enemy, Ransom me from the oppressor’s hand. (Written 3/8, Posted 3/29 ) I saw a statistic where over a million Ukrainians had fled for Poland. In my mind of “defend Texas”, I think those million people should be fighting the Russians. Granted I am sure… Continue reading Job 121: Study 108: Job 6:23 – Delivery from the Enemy
Job 6:22 Have I ever said: “Give me something on my behalf?” “With your wealth, pay a ransom for me.” Minutia. Little things. Details.

Job 6:21 Now you have become like that stream, You see my calamity, fear takes you. I am in the midst of dealing with someone whose behavior is less than professional.

Job 6:19 The caravans of Tema had looked to them, The travelers of Sheba had hoped for them. When I first started to blog about the Astros, I wanted the whole world to see it and maybe read enough about Jesus to be either encouraged or interested to seek more.

Leading students today was way different as I… Continue reading Job 116: Study 103: Job 6:18 – To Wander and Not be Lost
Job 6:17 In the warm season, they disappear, When it is hot, they vanish from their place.

Job 6:16 They grow dark with ice, Vanishing beneath heaps of snow. Jumping right in. I reread the King James version and chuckled at the language: “Which are blackish by reason of ice.” It seems like a geeky logic teacher trying poetry. Each source used ice except one who said: “icy day”. “Icy… Continue reading Job 114: Study 101: Job 6:16 – The Land of the Ice and Snow
