make it simple

Life doesn't have to be complicated.
Although sometimes we like that.
We like it to be full of adventure- sometimes doubt and uncertainty creep in w.o us asking them to. Most times when we want peace and quiet.... the chaos rages all around and we find ourselves tossed about in the waves- wavering, wondering, wandering....

The search for simplicity is on... esp in our modern world now. Simple, quick, fast, effective.
simple designs are considered the "in" thing, Zen styles and all that. The world's version of simplicity, seeking to replicate a "peaceful" life... one that is serene and uncluttered.
But is that really what simplicity is? - to look uncluttered?

What does it mean to you? To BE uncluttered?
Take all that clutter- throw it out.
You think u need it, you think it makes up who you are. But it doesn't.
Security, comfort, pleasure, glory.... in Christ alone. Nothing else.
