"The simplicity of the Gospel hit me, "love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, and strength, and love your neighbor as yourself." And i can do this anywhere, Paul could do it on a deserted island and a jail cell and still praise God. If anything there is some conviction that things are just too easy you know? I have to wonder why aren't we being persecuted, why are we being applauded and not being fed to the lions? "
Who are we to complain about every little thing? We live much much much more comfortable than Jesus ever did, and yet we fight against him, and don't trust him.
"He made the world a grassy road before our bare, wandering feet,
And crushed the stones into the softest sand between our toes,
But we're wondering where to sleep?"
Sometimes my depression in myself gets to me so much, then I hear something like that and get mad at myself for complaining about my loneliness. My head argues with itself so much, thats why i get quiet, i have arguments inside my head about my worth. Sometimes it is just so hard to feel His comfort in this comfortable lifestyle we have where everything else gets in the way.
