Job 38:4 (KJV) Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding.
God asks Job if he knew how the foundation of the earth formed. Of course, the answer is no. Even if explained to us, we would be incapable of understanding; our limited minds are humble. We will never fully understand the wisdom or power of God when it comes to the plan He has for our life. Instead, we place our faith in our Creator. He loves us, and we trust that His plans for us are always to our benefit.
God is showing Job how little he knows. See the ironic way God repeatedly reveals Job’s lack of understanding.
