Simplicity.

In this world, it is so hard to live simply. So far, I have discovered that there are a few things to keep in mind while attempting to live simply through Christ.

• Be content in Christ, be content with what you own, and do not look at what other people have or what you might want. Look at what you do have and how you can best utilize it and use it to the glory of our Creator!
• Be patient.
• Communicate with others. You will never know how powerful the fellowship of the believers can be until you tell people your needs.
• Be resourceful with your own things. See what you can do with what you have before giving up and placing the burden on someone else.
• Do not seek convenience, seek practicality. Unfortunately, the easiest thing may not be the right thing.
• Trust the Lord. [Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track. Don't assume that you know it all." Proverbs 3:4-6, MSG]
• Pray. Continue talking to the One who takes care of you.
