It Started With Embossed

Trouble and anguish make him
afraid;
They overpower him,
like a king ready for battle.
For he stretches out his hand against
God,
And acts defiantly against the
Almighty,
Running stubbornly against Him
With his strong, embossed shield.
Job 15:24-26

I wrote embossed down in my notebook, it means decorated. While I did this, I saw Eliphaz's name listed with Esau's sons. Eliphaz is the one who is speaking with Job.
Job was pretty disturbed and his friends weren't making things much better. God became upset, rightfully so, and didn't like Job listening to his friends.
Sometimes we try to find help with people, which is natural. But when taking about things of God, we need to be patient and seek God. No one understands your relationship with God, and don't expect them to. You can try, but if God is truly talking to you, they won't. They may act they know, just trust me, they don't.
You will hear that is a strange coincidence. Now if you get a collection of "strange coincidences," then you will know. Accept what is happening and talk to God. He is the only one that can answer your questions. The way he answers me is through Scripture or letting me know that He knows what I am doing.
You must read your Bible, and clear you mind and body. This is only what I think; God does what He wants.  Ask God for help, and He will help you - He loves you!
I don't know why I am writing this; although I feel I need to for some reason. I started shaping myself up and then God came to me in a dream. I don't think He comes to people asking them to change. I feel He lets us make choices, and mine are usually bad, so I do the best I can trying to follow His will.  I am still a big sinner; I can still clearly recite the verse that popped into my head - 1 Timothy 1:15. I don't have a clue how God operates; He does what He wants. Make sure to tell Him that you love Him!

The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

     Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.  Please read your Bible.
