True and total contentment is exhilarating! I mean it totally is! Think about it... it's the most peaceful, serene, beautiful, motivating, energizing, exciting feeling! It's a rest! A calm! A peace! Wow! I'm inspired! Can you tell?
Content with the bed we are sleeping in, the food we are eating, the car we drive, the work we work at, the family we have, the church we attend, the friends we have, the world we live in! Being satisfied with what we have, what is around us, what we see, taste, hear, smell, feel! Just a rest in God!
It's like no other feeling! I'd even venture to say its on the level of love! I think it's very close anyway!
Take the time to step away from everything and just count your blessings! Realize that we have all eternity (no time constraints) to enjoy what the Lord has made for us and what we can do for Him!
Can you tell? I'm inspired! True contentment is exhilarating! Just take it in! Soak up that feeling of contentment! Enjoy it! God is good!
Philippians 4:10-13
10 But I rejoiced in the
Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished
again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
12 I
know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and
in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to
abound and to suffer need.
13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
