The Simple Life

"These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace, In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world." John 16:33

"For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?" I John 5:3-5

Can life really be simple? I believe it can be as long as I don't mess it up. God has given us some much to enjoy in our lives. That don't require our bright ideas. Only one thing can get us to enjoying the life God has for us. It is our faith in Jesus Christ. Faith that is unwavered by circumstance. Faith that endures every storm and test. Faith that His word never fails. Faith is our key to overcoming the world. Faith in Christ uncomplicates the complications. We need to trust His word to believe His word and to Walk on His Word for His Word shall prosper. No matter what it looks like the Word of God (Jesus Christ) never fails.

When we submit our lives to Christ our life is simple because we are no longer subject to this world but rather to God. What ever happens is in His will and will not destroy us but draws us closer to Him.

The simple life is a life full of faith in the One that gave us life Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. If we can keep on hearts on Him what we see or fear can not overcome us but Our faith in God will overcome it. Embrace Christ and live the life that you are meant to live.
