A Simplified Life
The unfolding of
your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130
(NIV)
Do you ever feel
overwhelmed by the obligations of everyday life? Does your schedule sometimes
feel complicated? One of the enemy’s greatest strategies is to keep people so
busy doing so many good things that there isn’t time for the most important
thing. But in this life one thing is needed and that is to sit at Jesus’ feet
and spend time in His word.
In Luke 10:41, we
read “And Jesus answered and said to her,
Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.”
Unfortunately most people fit into this observation that Jesus made of Martha. They
get too uptight with the issues of life. But Jesus is saying that when His Word
is a priority in your live, everything else in life will fall into place. Life
is made simpler when the Lord in charge!
Today, you need to
simplify your life in order to make room in your schedule for Him. If you are
not sure how to order your day, simply ask Him to give you wisdom and show you
how to manage your time. He loves you so much and He loves it when you call
upon His name. Remember, He longs to be good to those who are looking for His
goodness. Simplify your life today so you can receive the light and
understanding He desires to give to you.
Prayer
Father God, today I
surrender everything to You. I give You my mind, will and emotions. I give You also
my schedule and I ask for Your wisdom to order my days. I choose to put You
first. I thank You for leading me in every decision I face today in Jesus’
name. Amen.

27:4; Luke 10:41-42
