If Jesus Lived A Simple Life, Why Are You Living A Complicated One?


I know we are in a world where everything looks complicated—life, relationship, work, people, things, and so on. That may be your experience. You might have become used to it. But every time distractions come, remind yourself of your primary reason for being here. 

Suppose you're at work, feeling the weight of deadlines, office politics, and the pressure to succeed. It's easy to get lost in the hustle. Or take relationships, for instance—how often do we complicate them by holding on to grudges, harboring unmet expectations, or forcing ourselves into marriage because of pressure from family or friends?

Even in our spiritual lives, the world has a way of complicating what should be simple. Many people in churches and religious communities today are more concerned with material wealth and status than the spiritual well-being of themselves or others.

If Jesus, whose life so many of us aspire to emulate, lived free from such distractions, why are we complicating our lives with those things? Why are we entangled in the fleeting things of this world?

And I don't mean you should abandon what is good or stop striving to achieve your goals. I just mean you should have a simplicity mindset.

You should live your life without the desperation that often drives many into stress and anxiety. Remember that life, though short, can be lived in peace and fulfillment when we focus on what truly matters. 

Jesus showed us that simplicity doesn’t mean lack; it means freedom—freedom from the constant chase after things that don’t ultimately matter.

So, cut the fat. Remove unnecessary possessions, toxic relationships, or harmful habits from your life. Live simply, live godly, and let go of the complications that weigh you down. See you again. God bless you!
