With Him
Read Job 34-37

Job 36:4 For truly my words are not false; One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

ELIHU continues his conversation, and he does so with an assuring truth. God’s perfect knowledge is in their presence and available to them. God is with them.
Is it not a wonderful feeling to know the close companionship of someone you love is always with you? My wife and I spent years in different jobs, traveling across the United States. Sometimes one would come home and the other would leave. Physical companionship was minimal for certain weeks, but our “love companionship” kept us together.
Our love relationship was strong. We remained close in our hearts because we committed to each other when we were together. We expressed our love, and it was good to be with each other, to grow strong in each other.
God wants to be with you wherever you are. His desire is for you to take time to commit to him because he has committed to you. When you do so, he will be with you.
Then, when the questions come, you can trust him and turn to him because he is right there beside you.


Pause and Consider: how perfect knowledge from God leads to the perfect answer.
