We've had a grandfather clock for almost over 20 years. Sometimes I notice it ticking, other times not.All ticking clocks pretty much bother me; it doesn't really matter whether one is louder than another.
I would love to get a cuckoo clock, but my mom won’t let me lol
Yeah, you can feel how spiritually sick - how distant from the Lord - certain places are. And more than feeling. You can see it & hear it.
Can be hard b/c the enemy's attacking you too.......
I had a professor in college who said that verse essentially summed up the entire Bible.A passage from Micah that has been on my mind from time to time ever since we went through that book in the last Bible reading thread a few months ago, Micah 6:8 ->
He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8 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? He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God? He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? But he’s already made it plain how to live, what to do, what GOD is looking for in men and women. It’s quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love, He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God? The LORD has told you, human, what is good; he has told you what he wants from you: to do what is right to other people, love being kind to others, and live humbly, obeying your God. He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God? He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you Except to be just, and to love [and to diligently practice] kindness (compassion), And to walk humbly with your God [setting No, O people, the LORD has told you 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.
And honestly, while we can argue back and forth all day about whether to harp on individual verses and passages as absolute proof of a certain theological stance one of the many hundreds of subjects of debate among Christians of all denominations, or to look at Scripture as a whole and determine what is best by "letting Scripture interpret Scripture", I think this one verse is a good place to start with those who struggle with wondering what "God's will for their life" might be. In any event, I doubt there is any Scripture anywhere else in the Bible concerning God's will for an individual person that would blatantly contradict any of the points made in Micah 6:8, on acting justly, loving mercy, or walking humbly.

A brunette with an adorable smile whose first post I saw said this:
"My birthstone is a bottle of Dr. Pepper."
