Just When You Think You've Seen It All...

While standing in the check-out line this afternoon, I saw a booklet entitled "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Prayer and Devotions". REALLY?! I'm not going to go on forever on this one and rant and rave or anything, but is this really necessary? Has the world complicated a relationship with GOD to the point that someone actually needs a pamphlet to tell them how to pray and read the Bible?
I'll be the first to admit that my devotional life is often not what it should be and my relationship with GOD sometimes leaves a lot to be desired. However, over the years I have found that GOD is really very easy to talk to and HE is always ready and willing to listen to us and take us back. Reading the Bible might seems like work at times, but if you can read.....
Just thought I'd throw this out there.

hahahaha . . . part of me wants to ask if you bought it . . .

But really, I concur. He kinda over simplified it . . . even if what we encounter when we read and pray isn't simple.
