Guide me, Lord, along the everlasting way.
O LORD, you have probed me and you know me;
you know when I sit and when I stand;
you understand my thoughts from afar.
My journeys and my rest you scrutinize,
with all my ways you are familiar.
Guide me, Lord, along the everlasting way.

Job
38: 1, 12 – 20, 40: 3 – 5 The LORD
addressed Job out of the storm and said: Have you ever in your lifetime
commanded the morning and shown the dawn its place For taking hold of the
ends of the earth, till the wicked are shaken from its surface?
Have you comprehended the breadth of the earth? Tell me, if you know all:
Which is the way to the dwelling place of light, and where is the abode of
darkness, That you may take them to their boundaries and set them on
their homeward paths?
Do I, like Job, sometimes need to be reminded
that I am not all-powerful and all-knowing? Have I ever been aware of God
“putting me in my place”?
Action: Go to church this weekend
because God is God and you acknowledge that he deserves at least one hour
of your (relatively) undivided attention each week.
