SIMPLE

It takes a child at times to introduce us to the simple things in life. As adults, we can tend to think the more high tech something is or the more we collect, we can enjoy life more. But, sometimes, it is a child's laughter, over something as simple as blowing up a balloon to bounce around, which makes life worthwhile. As adults, we should try to spend one day living as modestly as we could.  Instead of picking up the remote control, pick up a book instead. Rather than putting on the music, enjoy the silence as you read the words on paper, turning one page after another while sitting under the window with the sun shining in.  Put on a pot of soup rather than using the microwave or going out to eat.  Play with your pet, not putting on a video game.  I think our bodies will enjoy  the respite.  Maybe we ought to try doing it for two days! Oh, how the Holy Spirit will wake up your spirit as you enjoy the simple things in life!
