“There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil.” (Job 1:1, NASB)
“There is a tremendous sense of freedom in living a blameless life. Job was blameless. Neither Satan nor any person could accuse him of wrongdoing. Even through the most rigorous tests, Job remained above reproach.
This condition does not mean they never sinned on earth, but that God forgave their sins and granted them His righteousness.
Blameless does not mean perfect. It means that in ever situation you do the right thing.
Have you been blameless in your dealings with God and others? … There is a profound sense of peace for the one whose way is blameless!”
(from Experiencing God Day-by-Day by Henry T. Blackaby and Richard Blackaby, page 178)

Today I may be joining … Scripture & a Snapshot .
I remember once, when having to apologize for something, thinking it’s a whole lot better to do right in the first place. 🙂 I’m so glad for God’s grace and mercy in our fallibility.
What a challenge. Thank you, Joanne.
