Simple

I make situations way more complicated then they should be. I am way to hard on myself. I become distracted very easily. I get nervous over stupid things, like if my hamburger has to much pepper on it but I can fly 2,000 miles with out second guessing it. I am stubborn and cut off communication easily if i feel rejected. I let my emotions get in the way of clear thinking. I do things the complicated way.

What if I tried living simple? How about living simple with God? I believe the devil tries to make my relationship with God and people complicated to distract me. Isn't the message of the Gospel simple, to love others before yourself and to love God? I don't mean that by saying it is easy to love this way but the message is clear and not confusing. If I were to love this way maybe my life would be less complicated and become more simple. I mean I would be able to not let other things bother me if I was truly focused on this command alone. What can I cut out of my life to be more simple?





““Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.”  Jeremiah 32:17
