Sometimes God smacks me with a Bible verse – like today. Micah 6:8 has come across my path FOUR TIMES today! A version you might be familiar with is this:
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.
Today, I had my Message Bible with me in church, so I read it in that version for the first time. I pray you’re just as inspired as I was by these words:
But he's already made it plain how to live, what to do, what GOD is looking for in men and women. It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love, And don't take yourself too seriously-- take God seriously.
I love that. I will be meditating on this verse this week. I don’t know what God has in store for me, but I’m going to pursue this. If you wish to, join me in my meditation!
