Simple

I took a break from writing.  It wasn’t intentional, it just kind of happened.  A week turned into two, which turned into a month.  Which turned into 4 months.

Reminds me of my spiritual life.  One day without reading the Word turns to 2 which turns to 20.  Same with prayer.  Before I know it, me and God are miles apart.  So simple, yet so hard.  Simple doesn’t mean easy, it means simple.  And if you’re like me, simple is deceptive.  I know I should eat less ice cream and more kale, but I don’t.  Pretty simple choice to make if I want to be healthier and weight a few pounds less.  I do want to weight less, but not enough to give up my ice cream and pick up a broccoli stalk.

What simple thing is God calling you to do?  Very few really good things are easy, but many are simple.  For the rest of the month, I’m committed to some simple things.  Because I truly desire to be more like Christ, so I need more simple, and less easy.

Grace and peace
