The word "Complicated"

Every single time I hear someone say, "it's complicated" I think to myself, is it really? Or is it something you don't want to deal with?

Sometimes it is truly complicated,  your heart is tugging at you from all sides... none of it makes you sad but picking just one option doesn't make you jump for joy. You want it all.

I want it all! I want a satisfying means to an end. I want a content lifestyle where I don't have to worry how bills will get paid. I want to smile and not have to hide hurt. I want to serve the children who don't know love.

Then there's the whole I want to travel the world. (But we all know the likelyhood of that panning out is slim to none)

I want a lot of things but I am reminded that I have the one thing that really matters and that would the promise of eternal life in Jesus Christ.

With that comes a sense of relief. I know as long as I live a life honoring my Jesus, the rest is taken care of by the fact that God loves his children.

I might not travel the world but I will have breath in my lungs to proclaim His majesty :)

Maybe its not all that complicated,  not for me at least.

Love God and the rest will follow!
