Today we read about those who are blessed because they are blameless. I wish it was so with me. The process should be simple- follow God's laws and then you will be blameless but how different it is to follow them all day, every day for the rest of our lives. Thank the Lord for his grace.
God's laws are perfect and he his faithful to keep his part in the deal of life. I love the last verse in the stanza verse 8... I will obey your decrees; do not utterly forsake me. God knows that we will fail again and again but he will always be there to pick up the pieces in his loving and understanding ways.
Let's strive to finish the race with all that we have and be willing to accept our faults and shortcomings just as God accepts us just as we are....

Blessed are those that keep His commandments. There is a law in place of how we should live our lives....every thought, every action is in black ,and white print in the bible. How do we reamin blameless? If we continually stive to walk in His ways the cycle of guilt and blame will not follow because we will be seeking Him with a whole heart. None of this comes naturally, but comes through continuous discipline. There are glories in God's law for us to recieve. Happy are those who keep his decrees....may we strive this week to have an "upward focus" and to follow his commandments with not only our hearts, but with our words and actions. May we also strive to break the cycle of blame and guilt when we fail....God has given us yet another beautiful gift and it's called GRACE.
I'm very late leaving a comment but I was so struck by verse 7 - I will praise you with an upright heart as I LEARN your righteous laws. God knows we are learning, he gives us grace for forgetting. What peace and freedom this gives us!
