Many have said that the simple things in life are the best. Simple things don’t cost much, usually aren’t flashy and are seldom mentioned in the newspapers… Things like devotion to duty, love of family, faith in God and serving others are the kinds of things that make life worth living…
Our Lord taught us that to love Him is to obey His commands (John 14:23) and at first glance this might seem difficult. The truth is that it isn’t very difficult at all; it only requires simple and uncomplicated faith. If we have simple faith to believe His teachings, than obeying Him is an easy burden to bear.
Faith is not complicated, it has no ulterior motive and it isn’t self promoting; it just boils down to a loving response to His loving act of saving us from death. Simple faith is uncomplicated because we are relieved of the need to find a way to work it to our advantage or to use it to put others down; instead simple faith lifts everyone up.
Simple faith is like a tree that grows in the wild. It doesn’t try to impress anybody, it doesn’t worry about the latest fashions or how to climb over other people on its way up the corporate ladder. All the tree does is live, grow and do what God intended for it.
Simple faith is something more people ought to try!

My emotions are overwhelming the last few days. Your blogs have encouraged me to lead and to move forward in the battle for Christ. I feel a revival is coming. I feel God is working in many of our lives and leading us. May God continue to lead you and to commit you to the work he has planned. Amen.
Thank you so much for the encouragement, I really appreciate it.
And thank you for sharing this, I have much to say on this topic… maybe I’ll post my thoughts in the next day or two. I think one thing is for certain; there are many things going on ‘behind the scenes’ and we are living in very exciting times!
