Today's Reading June 27

This morning, Job, chapters 10, 11, and 12
Job continues the dialog with his 'friends'. He is struggling with his problems, and can make no sense of them. Yet he continues to regard the Lord as sovereign and in control. And nowhere do I see him taking his wife's advice to ''curse God and die''. No, he continues to grapple, to wrestle, to hang on.


This evening, Acts, chapter 8, verses 1 through 25
More of the early days of the church. Persecution comes - at the hands of one Saul of Tarsus - and the believers are scattered. And, as a result, the Gospel is preached in many places, including Samaria, that might not have been in the growth plan otherwise. Funny how the Lord uses bad circumstances, isn't it?
