     Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind, and said:

    "Who is this who darkens counsel
      By words without knowledge?
      Now prepare yourself like a man;
      I will question you, and you shall
           answer Me.

     "Where were you when I laid the
           foundations of the earth?
       Tell Me, if you have understanding.
                             Job 38:1-4

Job should have thought before he spoke. God loved Job, but He had a hard time dealing with Job's questioning ignorance. God starting getting upset with Job - this is only the beginning. God humbles Job, and also shows His majestic power. Tell God that you love Him.

Jesus answered him, "The first of all the commandments is: 'Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one.
'And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment.
"And the second, like it, is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
Mark 12:29-31
