"...I have learned to be content, whatever the circumstances." Phil. 4:11 NIV
Now lets face it, I have NOT learned to be content in every circumstance...in fact, often times I find myself wallowing in discontentment, unhappy with our 1-bedroom apartment and having no money and feeling like I haven't accomplished things that a woman in her mid-30s should have accomplished by now....but then there are days like today: This morning I lay in bed for an hour after waking up enjoying the calm and quite and comfort of my blankets....and enjoying the freedom of a Smartphone. I have spent hours watching a new favorite TV show today while cross stitching a project that I have spent months on and will like spend several more weeks/months on but I love it! I have the 2 best dogs in the world lying at my feet and when they ask me to take them outside I find that it is my favorite weather--upper 70s and very breezy. I work 2nd shift but I get to work from the comforts of my own home, so that even while working, I'm always home when my husband gets home from work. And did I mention my husband is amazing! How can I not be content with my life!
Thank you, God, for the reminder of this day!

It's nice to have those reminders of blessing!
God's so good! He reminds us every time we get like that... even if sometimes it's a frying pan to the head! :) love you.
