Contentment

Recently I've been getting a BIG lesson in Contentment.

I am reading a book The Resolution for Women by Priscilla Shirer. What are the odds that last night the chapter was on CONTENTMENT.


I love how she says this:

 "So if you don't have IT - whatever it is- it's because you don't need it. You may want it, but it is not necessary in order to accomplish what He knows is most important for your life today. Otherwise He'd have given it to you."

"Whatever He's given or not given. He's done for a specific reason-a reason known only to Him perhaps but one you can trust with full confidence, sight unseen. Every decision you need to make, every task you need to accomplish , every relationship you need to navigate, every element of daily life you need to transverse, God has already perfectly matched up with an equivalent- to- overflowing supply of His grace. If you don't agree with that then you either lack a proper appreciation for what you have, or you are doing things that you're not supposed to be participating in right now. "
