Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see.”
It is all about simple. Not getting duped by the complex theories, herculean hypotheses and advanced equations of genius conjectures.
It is all about simple. Not joining the madness of consumerism and collectivism.
It is all about simple. Not looking left or right or up or down, trembling, then constructing your own bomb shelter of safety.
It is all about simple. Not getting involved in the wars of deep-seated theology that are bound to leave relational battle-wounds, simply, unrepairable.
It is all about simple. Not counting the pennies of another, while staring at your possibly empty piggy bank.
SIMPLE
The more simple our faith, the more abundant our life.
The more simple our reliance, the more wisdom we accrue.
1 Corinthians 1:25 “For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.”
‘Simple’ is eyes that trust the unseen.
Not seeing the world as its driving force.
But God, as he pushes us, in safe protection, to his known.
It is keeping simple in the face of other’s complex.
Jesus in the forefront of rushing minds.
Following his lead, the one Who is the pure – the untainted apple of truth.
Not biting into fake, fraudulent or bound to fry, but staying attuned to the basics, the reality, the hope, despite the grey nuances presented by talking heads.
It is where mission bubbles up, and it is hope that actually – fosters hope.
And strength that has the strength to endure – it endures the fire.
And life that actually brings more life – it creates it.
All join hands to light a spark to boldness, so one can walk through the fire and come alive on the other side, believing that will happen is they will emerge refined, shining, glowing, a pure by-product of him who is pure.
And this is all that matters. That we follow Him. That we listen to His voice. We hear His Word. We love. We listen. We do as He did.
Galatians 5:6 “The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.”
Simple faith.
Simple faith leads to simple love
