LEARNING TO BE CONTENT......

Do you ever feel like time is just fleeting by?
 
The older I get the more I feel as if the days are shorter..
and life is going by so much faster......
 
  

Does anyone else feel that way?

I am trying each day to become more content with my surroundings......

More content.....
with this old home that we have done soooooo much work on.....

BEFORE......

AFTER........

 
 
More content.........
 With me.....

Wrinkles...
Weight gain.....
Gray hair that I continually have to color.... blah!
I am learning to stay away from mirrors that make me see
more than what I need to see.....
that helps...lol



To be content with the fact that I am a Grandmother..........

I seems my three daughters were just little ones last week...
where did all these precious ones come from??????


The Apostle Paul understood contentment........
in Philippians Chapter 4
he writes.......


.....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.
I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Phil 4: 11-13
 
 
Content:
  to be pleased....
Satisfied......
Willing; satisfaction.......
 
Today..... I am learning to be Content....

Blessings!
