Keeping God-search simple '

Many say they search.' Yet if its for Gods truth, often you will get hurt, the spirits
will verses; the drag of the flesh.' 
A walk of minutes, on into decades, denial of self, we need to part.' yet often we cling, to just trials
The familiar we anticipate the sting.' That of loosing? Maybe death, we talk of immortality, yet without
 simple faith; and
Love, we send forth noise, just as a hollow
Ring !

agree with these lines: yet without simple faith; and Love, we send forth noise, just as a hollow--wishing you well, Joe.

It's the simple things like loving your neighbour, rather than putting up a higher fence. Helping at the supermarket when someone needs a hand.
