Keeping things given to us by God simple, even though we live in a very complicated world.

Keeping it simple

As I was in church this morning, we had a man get up to sing. His name is Issac Sipple, known around town as Brother Sipple. He is 89 years old and goes around from church to church, always carrying his guitar in with him. It seems that everyone is always blessed to hear him, because intead of him coming in and complaining about all his aches and pains, he always talks about how good the Lord has been to him.

Our church has a really good sound system with a CD player, cassette player, and mini disc player. We have several musicians playing guitars, drums, piano and keyboard. But simply this morning it was an "old boy", as Brother Sipple likes to call himself, an acoustic guitar, and a voice which for many years has gone from place to place praising the Lord.
