Day 1: Living Real Simple

What if the new FAST was SIMPLY SLOW?

To stop for a millisecond

Enough to take a breath

to actually feel the inhale & exhale

& then to smile after it.

What if?

What gets in the way of the SIMPLY SLOW?

Those things that we run to

REAL FAST

when we don't want to

feel what we are feeling

do what we are doing

being what are being.

What if August is the time to be

SIMPLY SLOW

by FASTING from whatever gets in the way of living

REAL SIMPLY.

To FAST from

a habit

a thought

an anxiety

a bitterness an anger

an ___________~

by exchanging it

for a

SIMPLE TRUTH

that seems to be so hard to do in the moment of choice,

but you do it anyway

so the hard gets

REAL SIMPLE.

It is so SIMPLE that life doesn't have to feel so hard~

"Submit yourselves, then, to GOD. Resist the devil, & he will flee from you" (Jame 4:7)

It is so SIMPLE that life doesn't have to feel so hard~

"Draw near to GOD and HE will draw near to you" (James 4:8)

It is so SIMPLE that life doesn't have to feel so hard~

"Grieve, mourn and wail.

Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom"(James 4:9)

It is so SIMPLE that life doesn't have to feel so hard~

"Humble yourselves [with an attitude of repentance and insignificance] in the presence of the LORD, and HE will exalt you [HE will lift you up, HE will give you purpose]" (James 4:10)

So let's take off our sneakers

and stop making life so much harder by running in the wrong direction

and instead

FAST from what we do that makes life harder

by

Drawing closer to the

REAL SIMPLE TRUTHS

in the midst of

hard.
