But I find in the simplicity of Christ another area of rest which I so greatly cherish. Often, I struggle to understand the things of God. In particular, I feel this struggle when I engage with those who deny some aspect of the gospel. Often I have read or heard of some theory of this or that doctrine and have immediately recognized it as false. But when I engage to refute it, I am overwhelmed with the complexity which the enemy inserts into the debate. It seems there are always more questions than I can answer. I get confused. It is then that I find such comfort and rest in the simplicity of Christ.

I may not know WHAT all the answers are, but I know WHERE they are; and I rest in the knowledge that God will reveal what I need to know when I need to know it, and the knowledge He reveals will always be found with in that category of "the simplicity of Christ." Therefore, I can walk happily in the light I have and likewise leave others to walk in the light they have. I can cease from fretting over how well I am doing in the battle knowing that "the battle is the Lord’s," and not mine.
