Today's readings are Job 12.1-6 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=Job+12.1-6 ), Job 12.12-25 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=Job+12.12-25 ), and John 5.30-47 ( http://www.gnpcb.org/esv/search/?q=John+5.30-47 ).
Where do we find wisdom? Where do we find understanding? We often look to the aged, those with experience, and rightly so. But we rightly turn to the Lord for ultimate wisdom. Our Lord has given us true wisdom and understanding of this world, not through our own reasoning, not through our faith, not through the Scripture, but through the living Word of God, Jesus Christ.
Look at our Lord's dependence on the Father. How much more do we who are tainted by sin, whose eyes are darkened to the truth, need to depend on our Father?
Father, let us know you. May we be conformed to your image. May we depend on you for all we need.
