simplistic

Take me to the place I was this summer, rolling out of a sleeping bag in the clothes from the night before. Having a cup of coffee and taking kids hunting in the brisk air. Talking about God. Walking and not knowing where I was going; knowing that everything would be alright. Having people there who weren't just there, but having people there who were loving. Days of laughter and nights of peace. Stars forever.

Where is the simplicity in life? I sat on my porch tonight wondering just that. With the cold air on my body and the relaxed atmosphere I wanted to be in nature. To be with people I love with out of the hustle of life. With out the drama and complications. Living in Gods glory and loving all of it. Not that I need to be in control, but I want to be away from all the petty crap. Pointless fighting over dumb things, people not loving each other for who they are, and not having to... I don't want to finish that because I'm not really sure what it is that i do not want to do. How do I not make this sound angst at the world, but its the reason people go camping, fishing, hunting, cruising, laughing...

I ask myself what does it take to make this happen? Be a gypsie and travel with out a cause? Be rich and have some land? Guide? Missionary?

The answer: trust God. My internal compass points in no direction except the one He has me going on. I dont know where im going or what ill do, but my heart has no worries because theres something greater happening I dont know about.
