Have you been watching the news about the recent landing of the Mars rover Curiosity? I am so fascinated by the complexity of this engineering marvel. If you get a chance go on to YouTube and search the 7 minutes of Terror. It describes the complication of the mars landing and how engineers choreographed this landing. The landing takes 7 minutes and it takes 14 minutes to send signals back to Earth. So the engineers at NASA can't help and won't know about the success or failure until 7 minutes after it happens. Well, the good news, it worked!
Life can be so complicated. If you watch the political debates that are raging in our country you can see how complicated the issues are. Our cars, houses and businesses are controlled by complicated electronic devices. Our family relationships are just as complicated. We have step sons, grandparents as parents, and kids divorcing parents. It makes your head spin. It's so nice to see something simplified. That's what you get with Jesus.
Life can be somed up in this verse. We need to Love God in everything we do. We need to love him with our heart, to the core of who we are, with our thinking and ideas, and with the work we do. In other words, Love God! My complicated life doesn't have to be so complicated. I make it that way. God wants to simplify my life. I need to let him do that!
