Theme: Daily Scripture
“He that is mocked by his friends as I, shall call upon God and he will hear him: for the simplicity of the just man is laughed to scorn.”
Reflection for Today
Pause with Job 12:4. Hear these words again: “He that is mocked by his friends as I, shall call upon God and he will hear him: for the simplicity of the just man is laughed to scorn.”
Job belongs to the wisdom books, where faith meets daily decisions. Holiness is not only for extraordinary moments; it is learned in ordinary choices. Scripture rarely flatters us. It loves us enough to tell the truth, and then it stays with us while we learn to live that truth.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of Job 12:4 remain. Before the day runs away, sit with this verse for two quiet minutes. Say it slowly. Notice which word stays warm in the heart, and carry that word into one conversation.
Prayer
Come, Holy Spirit. Open the Scriptures to me as You opened them to the apostles. In Job 12:4 I hear, “He that is mocked by his friends as I, shall call upon God and he will hear him: for…” Give me understanding, give me desire, and give me the grace to obey with joy. Amen.
