Simplicity?
Can we really live simple lives in a complex world? I believe that we can! We are called to love the Lord with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. If that is the calling that God has placed on us, then why don’t our wallets and our schedule conform to this calling?
In order to live simply, we must purposely examine our heart and lifestyle. Ask yourself, does my lifestyle reflect God’s call on my life? If your answer is “no” then you need to do a little pruning in your life.
In simplicity, we cut out “Good Things” from our lives because these things actually snuff out what is really important. Live a simply life unto the Lord!
Solomon said in Ecclesiastes 7:29, “God made man simple; man’s complex problems are of his own devising.” (Jerusalem Bible).
Even the Grinch agrees…Excess is everywhere especially at Christmas….. Have a good week!
