Simplicity that is in Christ

I am back from our vacation, and a cold has stolen much of my voice through today (really difficult for us yakkers). So, I'm thinking I'll even stay on the simple side of the written word tonight. Fasting from words is an excellent discipline for me sometimes! :) For today's post:

"But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ." 2 Corinthians 11:3 NKJV

I don't believe that "confused" or "complicated" are words that God would care to use for the life that is in Christ but they are words that can at times be found in this follower's vocabulary. When do I find things most clear? When my abiding... my devotion to Christ is most sincere and pure. He then begins to order the rest of me in ways that are simply good and right.

Prayers for all of us this month to spend time alone with Jesus. Love reading your comments and walking together with this group. Thanks and blessings,

Laura
