What is right?

When you are in an airport do you watch people? If you are waiting on a friend in the mall do you watch people? I've always been a people watcher and it is truly amazing how different God made each one of us...

One thing is not different though...God sent Jesus for each of us and he gave each of us the right to make the choice of choosing Him..He even gave us an instruction book to follow and we still make it so difficult...

Today, in Micah 6: 8 ~ No, O people, the Lord has told me what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God. At face value that doesn't sound so hard, does it?

We got the instructions and He told us what He expects. 1) Do what is right ~ sometimes it is hard to turn the other cheek, isn't it? Or to apologize when you know that you hurt someone? Or to make the right choice even when deep down inside you know the right one, but it's not the one you want..2: to love mercy ~ oops mercy means to show compassion toward an offender or enemy. Now this is getting pretty personal and not always easy is it? I am able to show mercy, but to love it?
Sometimes this is a hard one. 3) Walk humbly with God - to not be arrogant or proud to show respect...Sometimes we get pretty full of ourselves which in turn makes it very difficult to walk with God. After all, God doesn't show these qualities and yet we want to??

Wouldn't it be a wonderful day sitting in the airport and everywhere we looked including ourselves we saw people that showed all of these qualities? We remembered that the person behind the counter isn't the one that made the plane late..or the person that stepped on my toes maybe she is in a situation at home that is so difficult that she could use a smile...and if we remembered that everything good that we do, really isn't our doing...it is the one that made us that allows us to show all of these qualities and we will look like HIM when we are able to achieve these qualities...
