Requirements…

Do you have a lot of things pulling at your time?  What does your calendar look like?  Does every day have “just one more thing” on it to do?  Sometimes our days can feel endless – task after task, errand after errand, chore after chore.  Go here, get this, pick up this, go to this store, pay this bill…  Then add a family to that and it can be a frenzy of activity!

Consider this:

 “He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you
but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

Micah 6:8

What would it be like to just stop?  Stop running from here to there? Stop trying to prove ourselves or reinvent ourselves or trying to do or be something we’re just not?  What if we could simply accept ourselves as we are?  What if all that is truly required of us is to ‘do justice, and to love kindness and walk humbly with your God’?
