the house is a mess, the finances are a mess,
my prayer life is weak, eating healthy is gone,
or things just feel off; then I go back to -
"The Lord has told you what is good, and this is what He required of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God." Micah 6:8
Lots of times things are a mess because I haven't been doing what is right, I don't love mercy, and I don't walk humbly with my God , so my life is not in control.
Recently my 80 year old dad completed a mountain marathon. He is a tough guy but this was a challenge, even for the 800 people who were all younger than him. When asked how he does it he replied, "I get outside everyday, I work hard and keep on doing it even when I don't feel like it."
The Lord has told us what is good, and He has told us what is required. If I am not walking humbly with Him so many things will go off, no matter what I do to try and fix it.
It is simple really, "keep on doing it even when I don't feel like it."
