    God rushes at me like a warrior.

    I want to go through this book as soon as possible.
    As matters stand, I am likely to be in the conditions like Job.
    Of course, mine is much less than Job’s.

    Job replied to Eliphaz with a hope to God in chapter sixteen.
    He knew that everything comes from God and only God can these situations save. He described these situations as like “God rushes at me like a warrior”. Several friends came and jeer without real comfort.
    He didn’t hear the advice from his peer. And then he put his faith, only God can these situations save, on high.

    I realize that I need to fathom my conditions in the light of Job’s experience.
    My gauntness rises up and testifies against me.
    I need to check up my life and put my faith on high.

    It’s easy to find a fault.

    I read Job, chapter fifteen.
    The scene was that Eliphaz the Temanite replied to Job’s defense.

    Eliphaz tried to testify Job’s arrogance and foolishness. Although he attacked against Job’s faultless, I couldn’t judge the fact who are right or not. As I read the verse of thirtyfive written Eliphaz’ comment, I once lose my sight about rightousness. I came to know it’s difficult to have right eyes and ears.

    So I prayed for my wisdom and discretion.

    I think that I must be more cautious! Speak and think with discretion.
    I want to know God’s governance and chareacter.
    I want to experience how great God’s thought.
