No Instruction Needed?

I was embarrassed this evening when I unrolled my new mattress comfy pad across my bed. I found a set of instructions hidden in the pocket of my newly acquired luxury. I said to myself, and to my roommate, "Really! A person needs instructions for this, unroll and go." Now that I think of it, how much more simpler would life be if we had more instructions? "What job should I take?" Oh, I think the answer is in my instruction manual. "Where should I live?" Look on page 65 for all the domain locations for your entire life. Life is not that simple. Or I make it to difficult. A woman has to do things in life where no instructions are needed, and when they are, I am tempted to toss them out. I crave the simple things in life. A homegrown tomato, an apron I made all on my own. Children to fill my time and Faith that is always growing and ever deepening. Maybe if I had my instruction manual it may come a bit easier.

Lord have mercy
