Get Simple

While most people will never know the simplest times that use to be,

Nor how these people use to live their lives without the so called luxuries we have today you must agree.

But you must also agree there is something about that time that is great and wonderful,

The times when they had to grow and spin their own wool.

A time when they had fields that must be plowed just to get the grain before they could eat warm bread,

Now all we have to do is drive to the nearest store a pick it off the shelf and despise the task it takes that we all really dread.

While these times seem such poor and hard times I find them rich in many ways beyond our imagination,

Because they never had to deal with the vial wickedness that goes on in our nation.

While all they had to cling to was each other and the promises of the God's word,

They never had to depend on a forty hour week job in order to make it through the week which is absurd.

They got to spend their days at home working along side their families, teaching them the ways they knew,

A few pennies was all it took for the extra ingredients just to make the weeks beef stew.

While I know they did have their own trials and struggles during their time,

It was small it comparison to the problems we see this day with all the corporate crime.

We need to get back to the simple roots to which we came,

We have made it the way the world is today we have no one else to blame.

But we can fix this by getting back down simple and low,

 Get back to the daily prayer and weekly God blesses and he will then let us grow.

We've become a country out of control and away from what we were founded, 

We need to turn around and return to our original roots and from there always stay grounded.

Psalm 116:6

 The LORD preserveth the simple: 

I was brought low, and he helped me.
