Lets Blame God

Scripture Job 30:22 You lift me up to the wind and cause me to ride on it; You spoil my success.

Observation: Job has been on a rant for a couple of chapters know blaming God for everything that has gone wrong. He has soon forgotten all of the blessings he has had most of his life and dwells on his current terrible situation. How many of us do the same thing when things don’t go right it’s God fault, because if He wanted to, He could make our situation better, but He doesn’t. We don’t ask God why we are dealing what we are dealing with, we just want out and it’s God fault that we have to deal with it. Can you imagine our life without God? If we don’t receive His son as our Lord and Savior, we will have eternity to experience it.

Application: I need to stop asking God to get me out of every problem that comes my way, instead I need to ask Him what He want me to learn or do while I’m there. I have an eternity of joy in a place that God has allowed me to stay so in perspective any time I spent here in trials or tribulations are only opportunities for me to earn rewards in my eternal home. I need to stop complaining and pray more to find out what my Lord desires me to do.

Prayer: My Lord thank you for all that you have given me. I thank you for the trials I have been through, because you lead me out of them, proving yourself trustworthy, gracious and forgiving. Teach me what you desire of me in this place. Show me what to do to earn rewards in my new home and draw closer to you. I love you and desire to please you, my God.
