Contentmentwhy is it so hard to be content now a days
it seems like our culture and way of life
just teaches us to keep chasing after the next best thing
Be it material or relationships
Get the newest gadgets
the best cars
the most gorgeous bags
and get tired of the old one
when a relationship get too hard
give it up
let it go
and just find a new one
why is it never enough?
why can't we work harder with what we have?
trying to always sought after the next "better" thing.
why can't people just be satisfied with their numerous blessings
I need to make that choice
and make the effort
to be satisfied with all the great things God has given me
he has given me blessings aplenty
i should cherish them all
my friends, family, school even the country i live in is a great blessing
I need to see things from God's perspectives
to believe that He will and has provided me with all i need
at every single point of my life
He is my source and he has my life planned out for me beautifully
I will trust in him and in all things pray about it and leave it up to him
I have to be strong and keep my faith alive
Its not easy, in fact it is so hard
but its really time to just be happy and content with all that i have
I pray for the courage and strength i will need to get through this
32 He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?
Romans 8:32
P.S i guess you can say this post stems from my ODJ for today and also watching 'the black road'.
