1 Timothy 2:1-3 (MSG)
The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know. Pray especially for rulers and their governments to rule well so we can be quietly about our business of living simply, in humble contemplation. This is the way our Savior God wants us to live.
Notice the goal here: to quietly go about our business and live simply. I’m afraid I live complexly. Don’t we all? Should we add “simple living” to our prayer list?
