Blessed are the simple-hearted

Psalm 119:130 (NIV) The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.

Psalm 116:6 (NIV) The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.

Proverbs 1:20-22 (NIV) 20  Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; 21  at the head of the noisy streets she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: 22  "How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?

If you are absolutely obedient to God, then there is no ambiguity in you and... you are mere simplicity before God.... One thing there is which all Satan's cunning and all the snares of temptation cannot take by surprise. That is simplicity.    Søren Aabye Kierkegaard (1813-1855)
