Ever tried to sneak up on a bird to take it’s picture. I have and according to the bird, in fact according to every bird on the planet I am not stealthy. So this past weekend I tried to sneak up on a turtle… same result.
According to Job, God is stealthy.
4 His wisdom is profound, his power is vast. Who has resisted him and come out unscathed? 5 He moves mountains without their knowing it and overturns them in his anger. 6 He shakes the earth from its place and makes its pillars tremble. 7 He speaks to the sun and it does not shine; he seals off the light of the stars. 8 He alone stretches out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea. 9 He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south. 10 He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. 11 When he passes me, I cannot see him; when he goes by, I cannot perceive him.
Job 9:4-11 (NIV)Have you ever pondered how Stealthy God is?
