Today we meet a new friend of Job, Elihu. He seems to be very tuned in to God. He states that he has been quiet becuase he is young. He has been listening to all the foolish talk and has had enough. I believe he is speaking the truth.
1. Something old but new: This friend gets a little angry and sets them all straight. Never despise the youth or think that they may not know something. Timothy reminds us of that. This young guy is on the scene to offer truth and correction.
2. Something new: This new friend straightforwardly tells Job he is wrong. No flattery! He tells Job, "But you are wrong and I will show you why. For God is greater than any human being. God speaks again and again, but people do not recognize it!" Job 33: 12:14 Job needs to quit whining that he has no answers and start looking.
3. Value application for today: We want answers to questions and we think God is ignoring us, but if we will be attentive, God is answering. He speaks. We just need to look for Him speaking!
Sweet blessings,
