being content
Tonight Fireside Chat was about being content. Pastor Long talked about three areas that we tend to not be content it:
~our possessions (sigh...I want a vacuum cleaner)
~our situations in life (waaah I have a chem test!)
~who we are (ummm...not too many problems there.)
It was a good chat. I think we probably all could use work in that area. I realized a lot more of the things I need to work on are connected to being discontent than I thought. Part of being discontent is thinking that God's plan isn't good enough right now, and not trusting Him to run your life. That's a big one for me.
Well it is nearly midnight so I am going to hurry up and post this. Have a marvelous Monday!!

I think being content is something we always can work on. I definitely need to be content knowing God is in charge of the future. *sigh* I think that's the hardest on of all.

We were talking to Zachary about that yesterday, and I think that I am content with my situation in life. I love living here. My possessions? Mostly, but I also want a vacuum, we do have one, but it does not work at all. I think I need to work on being content on any and every situation. It is a good thing to work at.
