Maybe you are saying to yourself, "With all that is going on, coming at me from every side, what am I to do? What does God expect of me?" God is glad you asked! And he has an answer...
"He has showed you, O man, 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." the prophet Micah (Micah 6:8)
It's a pretty simple answer, really, but not easy to fulfill. It is fully in keeping with the character of God himself.
What are we to do? Do this. It will take a lifetime of practice to get it right.
