Micah 6:8

"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."

Amen!

This verse is a good short-guide to discipleship and living in a way that includes all three dimensions of life:

The Out dimension: "...act justly", that is to be good to the community you are in, to act as Jesus acted.

The In dimension: "...love mercy", a call to be merciful like Jesus was, when he discipled his imperfect and highly human friends.

The Up dimension: "...walk humbly with your God", our journey in faith and belief is to walk with God, close to Him every day.


Very good verse, this!
God bless!

Hei Mathias,

First of all thanks for the comment, it's my first!

This verse is a favorite!
I agree it sums up what it is to be a disciple and to live life God's way. Liked the way you put it there. Blessings!
