One Thing to Do

Prodigal:  Sometimes we have to go back to the things that are simple.

Me:  Yes, life can get to complicated very quickly.

 

This is from the book Celebration of Discipline:  The Path of Spiritual Growth by Richard Foster

 

In our enthusiasm to practice the Disciplines, we my fail to practice discipline.  The life that is pleasing to God is not a series of religious duties.  We have only one thing to do, namely, to experience a life of relationship and intimacy with God, “the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change” (James 1:17)

 

Proverbs 12:2

A good man obtaineth favour of the LORD: but a man of wicked devices will he condemn.
