The mystery ... me

Job 26:1-4 

Job’s Reply to Bildad

“How you have helped the powerless!

How you have saved the person who has no strength!
3 How you have advised the one without wisdom,
and abundantly revealed your insight!
4 To whom did you utter these words?
And whose spirit has come forth from your mouth?

 

Circle of influence where do you end?

Who is reading my life like an open book?

Actions speak louder than words, who listens?

Who believes my speech ... only me or is it you?

 

Who is living through me ... is it me or myself?

But what if I am already dead ... am I not born again?

What if I am still dead ... but moving on

to an eternal existence ... indescribable to men?

 

If I am dead already ... and was brought to life again

It is not me that lives ... but the One Who gave Life to me.

Also in the opposite for the ones ... who never tasted life

As death is all that reaches out ... and that is regularly seen.
