Simplicity

I think I commented on another day about the feelings I had after reading several random blogs. Maybe I didn't, so in case of that I will add that I was struck by the simplicity of my life. What I saw in the other blogs was complication, complexity, chaos and crudity. Now, of course, I didn't read too many and I am not trying to make a blanket statement. I thought that maybe I was just "simple"! But after much meditation on the situation, I came up with this.

My life IS simple; because I have a foundation to rest on. My life IS simple; because I am not tossed to and fro with trying to please everyone else in my dress, political views, religious views, and manner of living.

When I read those other blogs, I see people who have nothing to hold on to but pleasing their own sensual desires, or getting even with someone, or getting ahead of another. There is war in hearts everywhere and these people do not realize that it is satanic in influence. Man's ways will never be peaceful. There are too many areas of life in which our human nature wants to be #1 in.

Pr 16:7 (KJV) When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
