Today, I am reading and commenting on Job 6-10.
In today’s passage, Job expresses how great God is compared to us. God’s power and wisdom are so vast that no human can resist Him and remain unscathed. When He acts, no one can stop Him. Even if we were innocent, being in His presence would cause us to declare our guilt because He is so much more than us. We cannot even begin to imagine that we might answer any charges God might bring against us, even if such charges were not true. All of this Job declares, and it is true. Which leads Job to wish for a mediator, Someone who could listen to us as another mortal would yet who could stand before God as an equal. Thank God that He has provided such a mediator in the form of Jesus Christ, Who is both God and man.
