3-4: The mixing of religions. Micah's mother thought to honor God with her actions here, but in actuality she was committing a grave sin. How many times are false actions performed with good intentions justified in the eyes of man? When does this happen in my life?
6: This is never a good sentence.
13: What an I compare this to? I know that I will be blessed because...I have a job that pays well; I go to church and am a good person; people envy me. Just because the requirements seem to be there (a levite is your priest) that does not mean that you are moving in the direction that God wants you to go (this Levite WAS NOT ordained by God). God may want you to work in another place where you can be a great light for him; you may not be saved; you may be incredibly unhappy on the inside because you are focusing too much attention inward instead of outward.
God blesses as he chooses, and he blesses those who honor him and follow after him closely, Oh Lord, please help me to seek you wholly and make you first in my life.
