simpliciy of God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The secret lies in the simplicity of God.
God, in his great wisdom and love, said one day:“let there be light” (Genesis 1:3)
He also said: “Let the earth produce every kind of vegetation, like plants that give seeds and trees that give fruit (Genesis 1:11)
He also said: “let's make man in our image, in our likeness... “ (Genesis 1:26)
Isn't this surprisingly simple? God is a God who likes to surprise his children; we only have to stop for one minute during our day to see several surprises from God. For example, what can we offer God to get his attention? But yet He interacts with us. Or just look at that tree outside or at your fingers and numerous other surprises from God around you.
Jesus was a person who valued simple things, like a mustard seed, a fig tree, and a man who in the eyes of men had no future at all, but to be a unimportant fisherman.
And do you ever stop to observe the simplicity of God and the surprises he wants to give to you today?
The problem is that we have the bad habit of complicating things, and we have complicated God! This hinders us from having intimacy with Him and hinders us from making Him known to simple people and for Him to be known by them.
God surprised me with his simplicity, will you stop a minute a day to observe the simplicity and the love of God for us? Or do you give more attention to the surprises of the world, like bills, grudges, problems, etc.? Or will you let God surprise you with simple things around you?

I really think that I need to give God more time!
I've been a little empty of His Spirit...

P.S. Very good blog, André!
