He is the Air I Breathe

The single generality that most people recall from the story of Job is that following his catastrophe Job's 3 friends come but fail to console him. Later, Elihu, a younger neighbor, outlines a number of the attributes of God while attempting to show Job that because of who God is He can't have done wrong to Job. After many colorful analyses Elihu says:

Job 34:15 He's (God) the one who runs the earth! He cradles the whole world in his hand! If he decided to hold his breath, every man, woman, and child would die for lack of air. (Msg)

Give that some thought the next time you're singing "He is the air I breathe..."
