What does God want from me?

For this morning's musing let me contrast a couple of scriptures.

Both Proverbs 14:12 and 16:25 say that, "There is a way that seems right to a man,but its end is the way of death." which tells us that for us to try to figure out things would be a big mistake. We don't have to reinvent the wheel, we don't have to wonder about what God wants.

I heard an awesome message this weekend from Micah 6:8, which tells us exactly what God wants from His people.

He has shown you, O man, what is good;
And what does the LORD require of you
But to do justly, To love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?

There it is.
1. Do what is right and honest.
2. Love mercy so much that you are merciful.
3. Walk in humility as you walk with God.

There it is...a prescription for a happy, fulfilled, God-pleasing life.

Reminder..if you don't know God you can't walk with Him..see previous post.
