Quiet Time Notes

Balanced Approach

You will not stay angry with your people forever, because you delight in showing youe unfailing love - Micah 7:18

The Bible is largely a book about finding balance - between God's hattred for sin and his desire to completely forgive the sinner

Micah understood this balance

Challenges:

• Called for repentance
• Against false prophets, political corruption, and spiritual apostasy
• Preached against greed, selfishness, and explitation

Opportunites:

• God's promises of blessing and forgiveness
• God longs to do good to those who forsake their sin and return to him

Repentant hearers had hope for better things ahead

Are there people in your life who need to see both sides of God's nature?
