Elihu continued insulting Job, he requested of Job to suffer him a little, and he would show him that he had yet to speak on God's behalf. Hmm! Elihu to speak on God's behalf? Anyways, in the subsequent chapters, we will hear what God has to say about all these empty talks from Elihu.
How nice it would have been if Elihu and other so called friends who claimed to have come to comfort Job engaged him (Job) with words of wisdom and understanding, I believe all the parties involved would have been better for it. Like in Proverbs, our passage for today pointed out that wisdom and understanding are of super value, so in all your getting, get them.
At the last days, the love of many will grow cold, read our Bible passage for today in Matthew. But must you and I be among those? Can't we ask God for the grace to keep standing in love for Him and others? He says ask and you shall receive.
Prayer:

Prayer:
Lord Jesus, give me the grace to stand on that love that Christ Jesus showered on me first in reaching out to others in like manner, Amen.
