Matthew 18:2 - “I’m telling you once and for all - that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you are not even going to get a look at the Kingdom, let alone get in! Whoever becomes simple and elemental again like this child will rank high in God’s Kingdom. What’s more when you receive the childlike on my account, it’s the same as receiving me.”
What is simple? - Pure, focussed, dependant, routine, trusting.
What is NOT simple? - contaminated, distracted, independent, complicated, unbelieving.
Forest Gump was a simple man but he achieved so much because of his simple nature.
WE GOT TO FIGHT TO KEEP OUR FAITH/WALK SIMPLE!
‘Why’d you go and have to make things so complicated?”
Matter of Focus - What are you focused on?
First love will always be simple/focused/childlike.
First love is NOT complicated.
REASON is the ENEMY of the SIMPLE.
