Job 1:22 = "In all of this, Job did not sin by blaming God."
In all the sudden changes of Job's life and devastating circumstances taking place, Job never questioned why God would allow such things to happen. Instead, he was accused of maintaining his integrity.
Many times in life we do the exact opposite of what Job did here. Our first response most of the time is to blame God and question God as to why He would allow things to happen to us.
There are two questions that should be removed from our thought process if we are going to maintain a life of integrity in difficult and trying times in life.
1. Questioning the love of God. - If God really loved He wouldn't allow things like this to happen.
2. Questioning the existence of God. - If there really was a God He wouldn't allow things like this to happen.
We allow these thoughts of the enemy to rob us of valuable learning moments in life. Trials, difficult circumstances and situations in life are inevitable, we are all going to face them at some point and time. Because of this we must change our mindset from blaming and questioning God's motives to seeking out what it is we can learn from those situations in life and maintain a spirit of integrity.
