WHAT’S REQUIRED OF US

“No, O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.”Micah 6:8 New Living Translation
            It’s interesting how clear God makes it to please him, yet people down thru the ages have been trying all kinds of ways. Simply put, it really couldn’t be any clearer.
         Now ‘doing what is right’ is a relative term. We are to seek to do that which is ‘right’ in God’s sight, not our own. That requires reading his word. It says the Lord has told us what is good. Are you fair in your dealings with others? Regarding mercy, do you show it to those who have done you wrong? Regarding being humble, have you been walking in humility?
         Personal assessment of one’s life should become a regular part of a Christian’s life. We are required to live differently than the world, mainly because we are not of this world. We don’t fit in, we were never meant to.  Live according to God’s word and will for you and you will be gratified with the results. Remember, it’s absolutely not about you, but rather God IN you, the hope of glory! Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing!

Hope


     "What does hope look like? It looks like pristine lake, free from agitation. It looks like a cloudless blue sky. It looks like a newborn child. Hope is what we all are looking for and desperately need. Hope comes in a person, the only one who can freely provide forgiveness. Freedom from sin provides for a person hope for a better tomorrow. Hope introduces that person to peace. Peace when fully realized can provide long lasting contentment and satisfaction. A sense of serenity fills our soul. Hope, peace, serenity all allow us to be at rest in our body and in our mind. Hope. We all need it." rlkeller
