A Hero Speaks Again

These words were spoken by Job, a mighty hero,  as he sat in physical agony and everything he cherished was destroyed around him...Powerful stuff my friends...
Where then does wisdom come from? 
Where does understanding dwell?
It is hidden from every living thing,
concealed even from the birds of the air.
Destruction and Death say,
'Only a rumor of it has reached our ears.'
God understands the way to it 
and he alone knows where it dwells.
for he views the ends of the earth 
and sees everything under the heavens.
When he established the force of the wind
and measured out the waters,
when he made a decree for the rain
and a path for the thunderstorm,
then he looked at wisdom and appraised it;
he confirmed it and tested it.
And he said to man,
'The fear of the LORD--that is wisdom,
and to shun evil is understanding.'
Job 28:20-28
