하나님만 아시는 섭리의 늪에 빠질 때
2024.10.18
(욥36:1-33)
1 Elihu continued: 2 "Bear with me a little longer and I will show you that there is more to be said in God's behalf. 3 I get my knowledge from afar; I will ascribe justice to my Maker. 4 Be assured that my words are not false; one perfect in knowledge is with you. 5 "God is mighty, but does not despise men; he is mighty, and firm in his purpose. 6 He does not keep the wicked alive but gives the afflicted their rights. 7 He does not take his eyes off the righteous; he enthrones them with kings and exalts them forever. 8 But if men are bound in chains, held fast by cords of affliction, 9 he tells them what they have done--that they have sinned arrogantly. 10 He makes them listen to correction and commands them to repent of their evil. 11 If they obey and serve him, they will spend the rest of their days in prosperity and their years in contentment. 12 But if they do not listen, they will perish by the sword and die without knowledge. 13 "The godless in heart harbor resentment; even when he fetters them, they do not cry for help. 14 They die in their youth, among male prostitutes of the shrines. 15 But those who suffer he delivers in their suffering; he speaks to them in their affliction. 16 "He is wooing you from the jaws of distress to a spacious place free from restriction, to the comfort of your table laden with choice food. 17 But now you are laden with the judgment due the wicked; judgment and justice have taken hold of you. 18 Be careful that no one entices you by riches; do not let a large bribe turn you aside. 19 Would your wealth or even all your mighty efforts sustain you so you would not be in distress? 20 Do not long for the night, to drag people away from their homes. 21 Beware of turning to evil, which you seem to prefer to affliction. 22 "God is exalted in his power. Who is a teacher like him? 23 Who has prescribed his ways for him, or said to him, 'You have done wrong'? 24 Remember to extol his work, which men have praised in song. 25 All mankind has seen it; men gaze on it from afar. 26 How great is God--beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out. 27 "He draws up the drops of water, which distill as rain to the streams; 28 the clouds pour down their moisture and abundant showers fall on mankind. 29 Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds, how he thunders from his pavilion? 30 See how he scatters his lightning about him, bathing the depths of the sea. 31 This is the way he governs the nations and provides food in abundance. 32 He fills his hands with lightning and commands it to strike its mark. 33 His thunder announces the coming storm; even the cattle make known its approach.
엘리후의 이어 말함인즉
하나님은 전지전지전능무소부재(全知全智全能無所不在) 비교불허(比較不許) 권선징악필(勸善懲惡必)의 존재(存在)
허니 욥은 죄를 지었기에 벌을 받게 된 것
만일 그렇지 않다면 하나님 욥을 치유해주셨을 것이라는 것
아니니...
무슨 죄를 지었든 지은 것이라...는 논리
욥이
스스로를 속이고 있는 것이라는 ...논리
오늘따라 사상(思想)과 관점(觀點)이 신념(信念)으로 굳어져
고집불통신앙화(固執不通信仰化) 된다는 것이 얼마나 무서운가...하는 생각을 하게 된다
인(因) 그리고 자초지종(自初至終)을 모름이
얼마나 위험(危險)한 처지(處地)가 되는 것임을 지금 이 시간 절실하게 느낌으로 다가온다
강목사가 아들을 먼저 보냈다
신혼여행지에서...
무슨 말로 위로할 수 있을지...
아무 생각도 나지 않는다
자식을 앞세운 아비의 심정...
얼마나... 라는 상상으로도 헤아릴 수 없는 슬픔
욥의 세 친구와 오늘 엘리바스와 같은 존재를 통해 알게 되는
전혀 도움 및 위로가 되지 않는 ...불난데 부채질 하는 격의 그러한 위함같은 말이 될것만 같은 두려움이 밀려온다
하여
내 머리도 하얗게 되는 느낌...!!!
욥이 하나님의 섭리에 대한 이해불가(理解不可) 맨붕이었듯
그 아비·어미도 ... 그럴테지...!!!
주님!
그들을 품어주세요!
설명할 수 없는 하나님의 커다란 이유가 있으시겠지만
결코 받아들일 수 없는 현실임을 주님 아시죠?
예수님의 이름으로
기도드립니다... 아멘!

♬ 찬란한 아침이 오면
1. 고통많은 이세상 어려운 일 당할 때
지금 이해할수 없는 것이 많이 있지만
우리 주님 앞에 가 모든 것을 볼 때에
그 때 주님 뜻을 밝히 알리라
후 렴
찬란한 아침이 오면
주의 은총 감사하여서
우리 주님께 감사 찬송을
그 때 주님 뜻을 밝히 알리라
2. 어지러운 이 세상 우리 살아갈 때에
주님 뜻이 무엇인지 확실히 모르지만
주의 말씀 따라서 모든 것을 행하면
주님 우리들을 도와주시리
