When I was a kid, we used to sing this song
Trust and Obey
For there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus
Than to trust and obey
Maybe you sang this one too?
When you are a child, everything seems so simple
You eat, you play, you hang around friends, your parents teach and guide you, you sleep
then,
responsibility sets in and we forget the simple part(s)
We get distracted
We lose focus
We buy into lies of what we "need"
We make it difficult on ourselves
But Jesus comes round again and again and again
Showing us the path of freedom
"be like a child," He suggests
"trust Me, obey Me," He says
"Seek God and His kingdom first and all these things-shelter, food, clothing-will be provided, " He reminds us
Can it really be that simple?
I believe it is
What do you think?
