Micah 6:8... a verse most people are familiar with but have we truly ever realized what this verse is saying!?
Think about it... we are always looking for "what God wants" and "His direction" and what "He expects us to do." And we stumble through our days and weeks praying for direction.... but what if "His direction" was simply to go about our day acting justly, loving mercy, and simply walking humbly with Him? It says "He has shown you, O Mortal, 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." Is it really as simply as that? Are we humans so used to complexity and so baffled by the infinitude* of God that we can't possibly comprehend that it really is THAT simple? What if we approached people, ideas...life... with that mindset? Can you see it? Can you imagine walking through life seeking God (that is after all what "walking humbly" really means, right?) and everything just "works out"? I'm not saying the rainbows and fluffy bunnies kind of "works out." I'm saying that no matter what, you know that by acting justly, loving mercy, and seeking Him, you know beyond a shadow of a doubt everything will be ok. I don't know... just some food for thought. ;)
*new word I learned by first spelling it "infiniteness"! :D haha
