God does not leave us speculating about what His will is. He provides in His word very clear instructions on how to live. It is arrogant of us: (1) to assume that we (instead of our creator) are the final arbiters of morality; and (2) to allow pride in our ability to think and reason to reign over the thoughts and instructions of God. It is pride which straightens our backs and stiffens our knees so as to leave them unbowed before God. As we approach the Passover when we rededicate ourselves to God, let us think of a phrase containing very specific instructions that if understood will prove life-changing. That phrase is found in Micah 6:8 "... And what does the LORD require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?" This message explains what the latter phrase "to walk humbly with our God" means.
