As of late I have lacked contentedness, until the Lord brought it to my attention. Even that I was worrying over the future which I am not guaranteed. What a blessing are the words of Paul while he was in prison...
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. Philippians 4:11-12
I am not in need either, except in need of a savior. To daily pick up my cross and help me remember how blessed I am. How the Lord has changed my heart and moved me from the world to the eternal .
Things that I never would have dreamed that I'd love to do are wonderful. Laundry becomes a blessing a time to pray over the clothes the family will wear. "Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience."Col. 3:12
I will remember to be thankful, grateful , overflowing....

Kyle,
I've got something weighing on my heart I'd like to talk to you about if you've got time. Could you shoot me your new digits and when a good time to call you would be? Hope your week is off to a good start!
I know, I found myself complaining this week, and I have to remember to put on thankfulness!!! I have so much to be thankful, and I feel so ashamed when I am not. It's something I have to get right so I can properly teach it to my kids. Thankfully,
jenn
