He hath shewed the O man, what is good, and what the LORD hath required of thee: to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God. Every time we have opportunity to do good to someone, let us do it, when it is in our power to do so. Jesus said blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Peter told us to humble thyself, under the mighty hand of God, and in due season He would exalt thee. Obedience is better than sacrifice. The Lord Jesus although He was rich, yet for our sakes He became poor, so that we through His poverty could become rich. Jesus gave us the greatest example how to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. Jesus came down from heaven to do the Father's will. He did not call the righteous to repentance, but sinners. Thank God that He did, because all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God. The publican said Lord be merciful to me a sinner, and he went home justified.
