Simplicity is about a freedom from anxiety. To cast all your worries on God and trust in him. This is of the most importance. I couldn't walk through life if I didn't have anything to trust in. If there's not a concrete slab to cling to the house falls down. We have to trust that God can be our rock and know that he cares and sustains us.
I'm probably one of the more analytic persons you've ever met. It is really hard to do this discipline. I can trust God with somethings but others I struggle really hard to. Currently life has been more difficult and I know the only way to get through it is trusting God. But obviously that has been really difficult. So I have been trying to do this discipline but I know I have been failing at it. This isn't just a discipline, this is a life learning ideal concept.
Simplicity is such a broad topic. Do we trust God with money? Do we trust him with decisions? What about time or our reputation? All these things take time to develop. Just turning off the wondering switch is almost nearly impossible sometimes. We want something so bad but we can't give it to God. He might take it away. Which one do we love most?
