Daily Thoughts

In the Old Testament I read that the Lord chastised Job's friends, said that they had not spoken right, and that His wrath was kindled against them. Job 42: 7 "And it was so, that after the Lord had spoken these words unto Job, the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends: for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath."

In the Pearl of Great Price I read that the seas and mountains obey the Lord--what He commands, they do. Shouldn't we be as obedient to the Lord as the elements of the earth are? Abr. 2: 7 "For I am the Lord thy God; I dwell in heaven; the earth is my footstool; I stretch my hand over the sea, and it obeys my voice; I cause the wind and the fire to be my chariot; I say to the mountains—Depart hence—and behold, they are taken away by a whirlwind, in an instant, suddenly."

Some scriptures with a thought booklet tell us that if we call upon the Lord, He will hear us, and if we trust in Him, He'll show us loving kindness and save us. Ps. 17: 6-7 "I have called upon thee, for thou wilt hear me, O God: incline thine ear unto me, and hear my speech. Shew thy marvellous lovingkindness, O thou that savest by thy right hand them which put their trust in thee from those that rise up against them.
