Micah 6:8

And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?

June 1

I finally got a chance to be up in my bonus room to create something. I haven’t been up here since everyone came home. Part of the reason is that is it was such a mess I couldn’t do anything. Last week I started to get it cleaned up and organized again. It isn’t all done but close enough to be able to do a little project. A piece of wall decor for my kitchen. I had started it several months ago. I had picked the scripture reference I wanted to use, finished the design layout on my Cricut. I even had all the tiny felt flowers made. I just needed to have my Cricut cut out the lettering and put it all together. At first, the small letters didn’t cut out of the vinyl very well, but it didn’t take to long to rectify that small problem. Everything just fell into place as I was putting it together. I never really know how something is going to turn out. I have a basic idea, and I know most of the elements I want to use. I just don’t know how it will all come together. I simply trust God and talk to Him the whole time I’m working on it. I love the time creating and I love the time with God.

I chose Micah 6:8

And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?

I love that scripture. It is one of those overarching scripture that helps to define your life when you choose to live by it. I have it hanging in my kitchen so I can look at it often and be reminded to do Justice. Do the right thing. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Love kindness, we could all use a little more kindness in the world. A smile, a hug, a gift, even discipline is kind. Lastly, to walk humbly. As we allow God to work in our lives and He cleans us up and we start to look a little more like Him, we can’t take the credit for that. It is HIm in us that makes us the people we are. No need to get a big head about it. There is no place for pridefulness in a humble heart. It was wonderful to create something beautiful with my Savior.
