IT'S WISE TO BE SIMPLE!
Many worldly people strive to gain more & more knowledge, but they'd be wiser if they were just simple. The Lord has to get by all that stuff to get to their heart! The Bible warns, "Beware lest ye be corrupted from the SIMPLICITY that is in Christ!" (2Cor.11:3) Jesus said, "Except ye become as a little CHILD ye shall in no wise enter into the Kingdom of Heaven!" (Mat.18:3) If we'll just recognise that we're just little children, & that we don't know anything, that the LORD is the One Who knows it all, that He is the only One Who is really wise & knows what He's doing, that's being REALLY smart! The newborn babe does not try to rationalise his mother & father & brothers & sisters & the new World & life around him. He just accepts & enjoys them & starts learning how to live & enjoy life & loved ones. You don't have to personally know all the answers, the whys & wherefores, or be able to explain everything or answer all the questions--just know HIM! He brings you love, He makes your life, He gives you happiness & all you ever wanted & more! What else matters? "Jesus loves me, this I know. For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong, We are weak, but He is strong!"
