Being a Christian really is simple when we pray, trust, and obey God. As human beings we tend to make life hard, simply because we want to do things 'our way'. Take a look at nature and learn to enjoy the ebb and flow of life. Allow the Creator (God) to lead his creation (man) and you will enjoy peace. Easier said than done you might say.  I say it is a conscious choice we make every day.

The main thing to remember about Christianity and living for God is that we must read, study, and then apply the principles from the "blueprint," the Bible, for how we are suppose to live. 

If we want to know about history, we study and learn from history books. When we want to know about math, we study math books.  When we want to know about cooking we read and take courses to make us better cooks. If we want to know about life, then it makes sense to study the Bible which is the Book of Life that God (our creator), left for us (his creation) to learn and grow from.

The Bible is our guide for living. If we apply the principles....we will experience blessings.  It is when we attempt to live according to 'our' own plan, that we experience difficulties, and problems.

If you are serious about having a change in your life, then I encourage you to pick up a Bible today. Start studying and applying the principles for living a joyous life. You might have to read several Bible versions to get a clear understanding of the message God want you to receive.

Many people use the excuse "I can't understand the Bible" as their reason for not studying the Word. Join a good Bible teaching church to assist you in growing and living according to God's plan for you life.
