And now, O Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul?
(Deuteronomy 10:12 (NIV))

What does the Lord your God require of you?

Have you stopped to consider this question lately? Perhaps it is something that we need to ask ourselves all of the time.

I am sure that everyone remembers the WWJD bracelets and stickers. This is asking the same thing. What would Jesus do? He would fear God and always walk in His ways. He would serve God with all his heart and soul, after all, he did do just that when he went to the cross to die for our sins.

God does not need us to go to the cross, but we must be willing to do what God calls us to do. It may be in the everyday things that we need to listen to God. It may be in the ordinary, and for some, it may be in the extraordinary, but no matter what God requires of you, remember that He will not ask more than you can handle, especially when you realize that He, through Jesus and the Holy Spirit, is with you always.

What is the Lord asking of you?
