## Highlights
- Doing what’s right . . . showing mercy . . . living humbly . . . modeling integrity. These qualities of a well lived life don’t come naturally or quickly. Cultivating the character qualities that mature us into the kind of people God expects us to be requires close attention to moment-by-moment decisions. We have to constantly focus our minds, hearts, and wills on solid biblical principles in order to get us from where we are today to where we ought to be.

- What does the Lord expect of us? Micah’s answer is comprehensive: God calls us to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with Him. ([Location 217](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B007V93XVQ&location=217))
- The world lacks integrity to such a degree that nobody can be trusted, not even those closest to you. ([Location 224](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B007V93XVQ&location=224))
