Dt 30:10-14 Moses said to the people: “If only you would heed the voice of the LORD, your God, and keep His commandments and statutes."
It's really that simple: Obey the Lord, Listen to His commandments and Follow them. We are the ones who make it complicated. Our fallen nature leads us to believe that we, individually, must discern what God means. He Knows Best. He is God, i am not.
It's not that hard. There are only TEN Commandments.
Matt 18:3 "Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven."
Each time we feel confused, or if our opinion differs from the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church , we must become like a small child, standing at the side of the pool. As a parent opens wide their arms, the child obeys and jumps- smiling and laughing. When we feel like we know better, we must simply look into the eyes of Our Father , OBEY and JUMP- smiling and filled with joy. HE Knows Best. HE is God, i am not.
" heed the voice of the LORD, your God, and keep His commandments and statutes."
St. Camillus de Lellis, pray for us.
