Simple things


27 October 2010.

Psalms 90:14 Satisfy us in the morning with thy steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

Simple things in life often touch us in more meaningful ways than some of the complex results we find in life. Watching a young boy running to his mother, with a smile as wide as can be, a dog wagging its tail in greeting, these things may be simple, but it is what makes life worth living.  A gentle thank you and a kind touch in times we need it just adds to the value and it doesn’t take much to do this.  The sad thing about it is that we have come to expect big gifts and grand gestures, and we forget that they fade with time, but a simple smile and a loving hug lasts forever.

It seems today that people have forgotten how to smile, time to stop and pat the dog, fuss the cat, smell the grass and just spend quality time with family. It is now less than two months to Christmas and before we know it, it would have passed us by. We need to stop the rush, and enjoy life while we still can, keeping it simple because that what really counts.

Be encouraged today to enjoy this day.
  
David

Point to ponder: This is the day that the Lord has made.

Question to consider:  Do you enjoy simple things?

  1. Dear David I was feeling particularly low when I read this. The problems of the world seemed insurmountable. Then I read this on the web site and the pall of depression lifted. Bless you for spreading the hope of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
