Walk Humbly

The Good News Today Is...we know what God wants us to do. "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." (Micah 6:8) The problem is to figure out how to do it. We do not always act justly, we do not always love mercy, and we have no clue how to walk humbly with God. It's not that we can't do these things, it's that we are stubborn about letting go of our system of justice, making sure every one gets what they deserve (good or bad). Just remember when you hear yourself exclaiming, "It's not fair," perhaps it is time to do a little soul searching. These words should trigger you to stop thinking about the way the world thinks of things and walk with God. It might not be fair in our way of thinking, but God has a plan. Maybe you need to walk humbly with God and ask Him what is going on - I think the answer will surprise you.
