Sermon: 4/12/26- Thursday's Devotional

God's Perspective Changes Everything
Reading: Job 38:1-7; Isaiah 55:8-9

When God finally spoke to Job, He didn't explain the suffering. Instead, He revealed Himself. "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?" God's questions weren't meant to humiliate Job but to expand his perspective. God's ways are as far above ours as the heavens are above the earth. We demand explanations, wanting to understand the "why" behind our pain. But God offers something better than explanations—He offers Himself. He invites us to trust His character when we cannot trace His hand. The Creator who set the stars in place, who commands the morning and knows the depths of the sea, is the same God present in your suffering. You may never know why certain things happen, but you can know the One who holds all things together. Is your faith dependent on understanding God's plans, or on knowing God Himself?
