WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU?


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 NIV

It's all uphill...

Going uphill is harder than going downhill. It is easy to understand why we usually follow the 'path of least resistence."

One thing that I have noticed about going uphill is that the closer you get to the top the less you are able to see of what is ahead. Near the top of the hill you can hardly see anything past where you currently are and then... BOOM... All of a sudden, you are greeted by a panoramic vista stretching to the horizon.

My experience has been that the last 10% of anything is the most challenging part.

If you are seeking after God and you are going uphill, keep going. Trust God to give you what you need to reach the top of the hill. Even if you can't see what is coming next, let God guide you and you will soon be able to see how everything fits together!
