Storms
Storms
Job 36:33 New English Translation (NET Bible)
33 His thunder announces the coming storm,
the cattle also, concerning the storm’s approach.
Here you come rolling downhill with a lot of racket
Lightning streaking through the sky and thunder roaring
You came announced but really not unexpected
The rain and hail you brought is now relentlessly soaring
You are washing clean and feeding the earth
It must have been really dirty if it takes this much commotion to freshen up
If this could be done with the human heart
Would it make a lasting difference or would it soon again hunger to corrupt
All the things in nature purposely make a lot of sense
And that leads many questions about human behavior
Folks are not as refreshing as they act with common “dense”
Maybe all in all, we’re built to neglect each other’s favor
Jan Wienen
