Day 266..."Job wants relief...Jeremiah wants the people to return...Paul says all have sinned"

Job wants relief from his suffering. Friend number two, Bildad, wants Job to repent to find relief. Speaking of repentance...it is interesting that Romans, chapter three, reminds us all have sinned fallen short of God's Glory..."for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God put forward as a propitiation by his blood, to be received by faith." Jeremiah also seeks returning to the Lord and glorifying Him through..."“If you return, O Israel,declares the Lord,to me you should return.If you remove your detestable things from my presence,and do not waver, and if you swear, ‘As the Lord lives,’in truth, in justice, and in righteousness,then nations shall bless themselves in him,and in him shall they glory.”
