Contentment

"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."
Philippians 4:12-13

Content. That's an interesting word. It is basically a state of heart in which you would be at peace if God gave you nothing more than He already has. It is being able to accept the situation as it is and know that God will give you the strength to get through it.

Contentment is not easy, but in it we will find rest and peace knowing that God is in control.
In the holiday season and in a world that tells you that you'll never have enough, let's try to trust in God and find joy that He is here, Emanuel "God With Us."

Happy Holidays!
Thanks for all you do!
