Reading a book by Chuck Swindoll last night and I was hit with some honesty truth; when did simplicity become a bad thing? Christ himself said, "whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." (Mt. 18:4).
Sometimes our lives are too complicated, too cluttered, too wired, and too task oriented. We don't just be anymore. We don't sit in silence and simplicity, marveling at the wonders of God's creation. So that is my challenge, take time to just be. I'm going to start tonight with a little along time on my porch: just me, God, and the world out my back door.

I think simplicity becomes a bad thing when it hides the deeply complicated nature of reality. Even humility (Mt. 18:4) is often way complicated in practice.
