What do you want from me?


The Lord speaks to us all in different ways. More often than not he speaks to me thru the Bible. I have numerous stories about this but one of my favorite involved Micah 6:8.

I was struggling with trying to discern what the Lord wanted me to do. I’d tried several ministry things but nothing seemed the right fit. I want to please the Lord and He knows that but sometimes I just wish He’d get out His great big pen and write it out for me in the sky.

One day I was fed up with trying to figure out what He wanted and I literally screamed at the ceiling, “what do you want from me.” It was then I heard the Biblical reference of Micah 6:8. I had an old Bible sitting right next to me on the table so I immediately looked it up. I knew I’d heard from God when I read: “What does the Lord require of you, O man but to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly before your God.”
