I am a stickler for requirements; when I began new jobs, I wanted to know what my employer expected from me. Pam is not a perfectionist; my clutter is proof positive.
Yet, when it comes to fulfilling responsibilities, I have tried to meet and exceed requirements.
What does the Master require of you and me?
“He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God (Micah 6:8 KJV).”
Easy as 1-2-3?
No, but it is clear-cut. He seeks those who know his priorities.
Jehovah is just in his dealings with his people; he is merciful. Created in his image, we should mirror his ways.
Lest we become proud in our position, we are to humble ourselves in our walk of faith…
Spiritual housekeeping is ongoing, like laundry and dirty dishes, always more to wash!

I appreciate this post so much today. I’ve been focusing on how I might follow the Lord more closely and if there be any area I’m not aware needs a bit of straightening . Spiritual housekeeping, so to speak.
