WEDNESDAY (5/19/21)

  • Read Job 39

God continues on with His questions for Job to consider. On a separate piece of paper, write out some answers to the following reflections:

  • If you are Job, how are you feeling?
  • What in this chapter expands your view of who God is?
  • What is your favorite visual from this chapter?

TUESDAY (5/18/21)

  • Read Job 38

From the video we learned about Job’s incredible losses, his pain and
confusion, and the poor counsel from his friends. He demands an
audience with God and he gets one. But God has a surprising answer.

On a separate piece of paper, jot down some answers to the following questions:

  • Why do you think God answers Job in this fashion?
  • What, in this chapter, expands your view of who God is?
  • What is your favorite visual from this chapter?

MONDAY (5/17/21)

Today we are continuing in the wisdom books with the book of Job.

We are going to start in a predictable way with the Bible Project video
which gives us a short review of Proverbs & Ecclesiastes and a good
overview of Job:

On a separate piece of paper, jot down some answers to the following questions:

  • What popped out to you from the video? Any questions? Observations?

SUNDAY (5/16/21)

Ahhhh, Sunday! Spend some time this morning just enjoying the
Father’s presence. Sit quietly with Him, thank Him for who He is,
thank Him for His endless love for you and His delight in you.

SATURDAY (5/15/21)

  • Read Ecclesiastes 12

The opening verses remind me of our time in Revelation. Days of
trouble are surely coming. Write out the answers to the following questions on a sheet of paper:

  • What do we learn about God from this chapter?
  • How about us? What do we learn about people?
  • How is the Teacher calling us to respond?

FRIDAY (5/14/21)

  • Read Ecclesiastes 9

More lessons from “under the sun.” On a separate piece of paper, write out the answers to the following questions:

  • After reading this chapter, what are the sobering or discouraging parts?
  • What are the observations that are encouraging or bring life?
  • What’s your take home from this chapter?

THURSDAY (5/13/21)

As we continue reading through wisdom literature, remember from
Proverbs that wisdom was around before all of creation. And we can
glean from wisdom’s insights as we seek to live life well and for the
Father’s glory.

  • Read Ecclesiastes 1

According to the Bible Project video, we are now reading from the
“middle aged critic” portion of the wisdom literature.

  • What does the author observe about life according to this chapter?
  • How is creation portrayed in this chapter? Does anything pop out to you?
  • Can you think of something new “under the sun”?
  • What is comforting about there being nothing new under the sun?
