Freedom of simplicity- Finding Harmony in a Complex World by Richard J. Foster
"If the first insight into simplicity that we receive from the Old Testament is radical dependence, the second is radical obedience. Perhaps nowhere is the more graphically seen that when Abraham was called upon to surrender his most priceless treasure-his son Issac. God spoke; Abraham obeyed. No contingency plans, no skirting around the issue, no ifs ands or buts. Through a long painful process Abraham's life had been honed down to one truth- obedience to the voice of Yahweh. This "holy obedience" forms the grid through which the life of simplicity flows."
About Me
- c
- I'm a christian, woman, wife, MOTHER (that job title is new!) photographer, quilter, reader, knitter, foody...well you get the idea...i have interests. But I'm passionate about the cause of Christ and sharing the things I have learned. But just because something has worked for me doesn't mean it's right for you or will work for you too, especially when it comes to kids. They are all unique little people. Be sure to think for yourself :) But I pray the things I share here will be a blessing to you, and you are inspired to go out and fulfill your unique calling in the world today and to grow in a closer relationship with God as you do. ~c P.S. The Man (my wonderful husband) and I like to keep a little bit of privacy when it comes to the internet, just in case you are wondering why we don't use our names on here.

“Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the end than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” Helen Keller
