    based on 31 ratings
     | 5,365 views

    True simplicity is a focus on the fundamentals of love, faith, service, and patient endurance. Getting caught up in theological guesses or emotional highs diverts us from "this one thing I do".

Have you ever tried to describe to someone how to tie a shoestring? It seems simple until you start to teach it. Left ...read more
