It Is That Simple

           Here recently, I have been turning the radio up in my car when a certain song comes on. It is, “I Wanna Go Back,” by David Dunn. It’s about going back to the time of being a child and remembering that my Creator loves me. It’s a great song! Look it up.

            But, not only is it a great song. It also caused me to think about the words and the simplicity behind them. How many times in our adult lives do we experience moments when we just want to go back to the days of childhood and the simple knowledge that Jesus loves me?

            When I realized what Mr. Dunn was singing about, I began to smile. It really is as simple as remembering my Creator loves me. No matter what I do or what I accomplish, my Creator loves me and all He wants is for me to love Him back!

            Sometimes, it gets hard to live in this world full of chaos. It’s hard to remember that no matter what, you are loved unconditionally by the one who created you. I’ve admitted a few times that I sometimes find myself fighting to be worthy of His creation. Thanks to this song, though, I’m reminded that I don’t have to fight to be worthy because to Him, I always have been.

            Sure, I fall and blemish the image He created of me. I’m imperfect and He is okay with that. He still accepts and loves me even with the scars of my ignorance. I may struggle with certain decisions. I may not understand the road I’m on sometimes, but my Creator loves me and no matter what else is going on, it really is that simple!
