Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Enjoy life like a child

Here's a daily devotional from Joyce Meyer.
She can say it so much better than me!!

Unless you repent (change, turn about) and become like little children, 
trusting, lowly, loving, forgiving, 
you can never enter the kingdom of heaven.
Matthew 18:3

As a believer you can have the abundant quality of life that comes from God.  He is not impatient or in a hurry.  He takes time to enjoy His creation, the works of His hands.  And He wants you to do the same.

Joy is available to you if you know how to tap into it.  I have learned that simplicity brings joy and complications blocks it.  Instead of getting entangled with the complications of religion, you must return to the simplicity of believing and maintaining a Father/child relationship.

God wants you to approach life with childlike faith.  He wants you to grow up in your in your behavior but remain childlike in your attitude of trust and dependence on Him.

Living your life with the simplicity of a child will change your whole outlook in a most amazing way.

A blessed Sunday to you all.
