Jan 11, 2004 Job: 29 - 31
Job 29
v. 1 - 25
Job's wrap up pt, 1: Oh I wish that my times of prosperity, when God favored me, were back. I was a man of authority and respected then. I followed a lifestyle of piety and benevolence. I never thought that all this would come to me.
Job 30
v. 1- 31
Job's wrap up pt, 2: Now those who respected me mock me. Even young men whose fathers I would not have put with my dogs. Men who would live as outcast now use my name as a curse word. I am drained out. I cry to you God, but you do not respond except with more cruelness. Why does HE still torture these ruins. I am looking for good and find darkness.
Job 31
v. 1 - 40
Job's wrap up pt, 3: I have not been a lustful man. I have not falsely accused anyone. If I have been let me weighed in God's judgement. Let all that I gain be enjoyed by another. If I could not say these things to you, how could I answer God? We all, my servants and I were made by the same God. I have helped the poor and the fatherless. I have not made gold my hope, nor worshiped things I should not. I have not rejoiced at evil and have asked the stranger to stay with me. Oh that the one who prosecute me would write down my crimes in a book. I have not even been a hard person to the land I own. With this Job goes quiet.

Wonderful description of what I was able to watch on TV. Only wish I could have been there.

QB thrives under playoff pressure
FOXBORO, Mass. -- There was no snow this time, no Lonnie Paxton swishing snow angels in the end zone, no -- thank the Lord for small favors -- revisit of the Tuck Rule.
It was the coldest game in 43 seasons of New England Patriots football -- a frigid 4 degrees, with a wind-chill factor of -10. At halftime, they showed a blazing fire on the big screen at Gillette Stadium and played "Baby, It's Cold Outside." By the time the game was decided, and Jeff Fisher's moustache had become...

Jan 10, 2004 Job: 24 - 28
Job 24
v. 1 - 25
Job complains about violence: Why do wicked men do evil things but do not get punished? While innocent people go around in awful conditions? Evil men who do things in secret do not get punished swiftly by you God! Why is that? But even though they are made might they like the rest of us will die. Can any of you prove my words wrong?
Job 25
v. 1- 6
Bildad, short and to point:How can man be righteous before God?
Job 26
v. 1 - 14
Job, Man is frail/God is master: Have you helped people that have no hope. There is a trembling and He is spreading his hand all over the place. We can barely understand the grandur and majesty of God.
Job 27
v. 1 - 23
Job, I am innocent: Though God has taken all from me I will not speak wickedly about Him. But I also will not say that you men are right either. The evil person who gathers all the nice things never gets to enjoy them, but his offspring do as the split it among themselves. And in the end, he will lie to his rest like we will.
Job 28
v. 1 - 28
Job on wisdom: What is deep and hidden is brought to light, like precious metals, so that they can be gathered. But where can wisdom be found? We cannot mine it like metal or precious stones. It is hidden from all living men. God knows what it is. and to man it is the fear of the Lord as is parting from evil understanding.
