One thing I do know is that as humans we have an unlimited capacity to make things complicated. I wonder sometimes if it is related to our love of stories and how we use them to convey ideas.  Perhaps we fall in love with the content and its complexity that we lose sight of the purpose of telling elaborate stories.  The point is to convey a particular lesson.  Maybe the complexity allows us to keep our minds busy and we feel more useful or intelligent. Whatever constructs we design in our mind our hearts seem to know what the simple truth is the moment it is revealed within the construct.  It is one thing we can count upon.  Often times when the heart sees right through the construct and whispers in our ears the simple direction or idea we shrug it off.  We presume it is too simple to be the real one.  It is only when the truth is conveyed through multiple constructs that we are willing to consider surrendering to simplicity. If we have built our identity around whatever construct our mind has created, we are less willing to concede to the simple premise of the heart if it seems to stand in contrast to our sense of self.  It is in the moment of feeling torn when I turn to God for a God construct.  It is the space in between the mind’s construct and the heart’s simple knowing of truth.  A God construct values the path from one to the other.  A God construct acknowledges the importance of all the complexities which have brought me to the space of being able to see and hear the simple message of truth from my heart.  A God construct does not demand immediate surrender, it simply lets me know the multitude of options available for the next indicated step.
