Scripture
Job 8:7And though you started with little, you will end with much.
Observation
This text was spoken by a friend to Job. Even though the friends missed out on the reason and purpose of suffering, some of what they said about God was accurate.
Application
I need to remember that even when people are whacked in the head, they can still be right about some things - even when they say them from a wrong perspective. Also, this text was given to me by Dick Mills a hundred years ago. Though my beginnings were small... I remember my mom saying that she remembered when he said this that I was a 5lb baby. I trust my size is not a fulfillment of this prophecy :)
Prayer
Lord Jesus, please help me to be open to your truth, however I hear it. Also, I submit my future to you. Just like Bill Hybels led me to pray, I pray today. I give you my best, and I commit to 'bring it'.
