The tune randomly came into my head as I drove home from Mary Flo's today where we had been discussing "simplici-TEA and humili-TEA." In my head Louis Armstrong was singing but I don't know if he was the one who sang it in "The Jungle Book." Regardless, those lyrics had me thinking about choosing today's verse for meditation from ones that are "neccessities" in my pursuit of simplici-TEA study.
Look for the bare necessities |
My "simply necessary" choice for today:
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” (Matthew 11:28-30)
The Lord's recipe for simplicity is located right between the cover of the Bible, His recipe book for life.
It's simply a necessity. |
