Shake Your Fist at God

Today is going to be short but it will hopefully pack a full punch in the gut for us all. The book of Job is chock full of verses where Job shakes his fist at God for all the hardship he has to endure. But what do we learn from Job here?

The answer is short and sweet. Ask God why something happens, but never curse Him for it. Life will throw us punches that are harder than Mike Tyson in a 90 second bout. But, we must never shake our fist at God in anger, give Him ultimatums, or plain turn our backs on Him. That would be like stepping in the ring with Iron Mike for a second round and asking for him to knock us out...........again.

How does the old cliche go again, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade." It's time for us to add the sugar and make lemonade................for Christ.

Cutting up my lemons now,
Jesus Freak Out!
