Reflection on Job 38:1-11

Wise men- those who think themselves so-
Know it all
They question God- even his right to exist-
In their world

But God summons them to prove themselves
Knowing nothing
The God who made the stars and the sea and the land and the plants and the air
And the men who question him
He says “Come
Tell me what you know”

To the proud, the arrogant ones who strut
their stuff on the stages of sycophants
This is scary.
To the unassuming heart
It is life.
