3 things to do for a more simpler, joyful life

Life today is too complicated. There is just too much drama. And it’s all linked to pride, the comparison trap, ego and hatred among other things. All of these are works of the flesh. Whoever decides to live scripturally will live a simpler, easier and more joyful life. The Apostle Paul taught the believers in the city of Thessalonica these 3 principles:

“Do all you can to live a peaceful life. Mind your own business, and earn your own living, as we told you before” (1 Thessalonians 4:11, ERV).

Imagine if all of us would strive to live a peaceful life instead of arguing, fighting, gossiping, hating and trying to be better than others? How would that affect our communities? What if we would simply mind our own business and earn our own living? Wouldn’t that stop most of the arguments and divisions? It’s time to obey and live by the scriptures instead of living like the world! And the most important thing about this is that it starts with us. Instead of complaining about the way everyone else is living, it’s best to simply begin to live it it out and model it among our families and communities. Hey, it’s a new year so this is a perfect time to start, isn’t it?

  1. EVEN WHEN I LIVE AT PEACE WITH MYSELF AND OTHERS, PEOPLE THAT DON’T UNDERSTAND THIS PRINCIPLE WILL FIND A WAY OF COMPLAINING, PRAISE GOD I MUST BE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT.
