He has shown us what is good!



Yesterday I was just flipping through the bible while taking a short break at work.  I happened upon a section of scripture in the book of Micah Chapter 6.  In this chapter the Lord is asking Israel to stop their complaining and remember what the Lord did for them.  The verse that most touched me in this entire passage is verse 8.  "He has showed you O man what is good.  And what does the Lord require of you?  To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.

How simple can God get?  What more is there?  How complex do we make this task of life?  When are we going to realize the power of our Creator?  When will we acknowledge all that He has already done for us?  When will we stop whining about the little things?

How does one act justly?  The Bible gives us the answer...1 John 4:7 - "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God."  I believe to act justly is to Love...to love mercy is to share God's mercy with others.  To walk humbly with your God is simply to place all your trust and understanding at His feet and ask Him daily to direct your steps.  He is at the center of the Universe...holding it all together...He can hold your life together as well!  He can do all things! 

May we fully commit our lives to Him in every minute of every day that He gives us on this great planet!
