It's a new day with no mistakes in it, yet. If I could just keep it that way. It's one of those days that I would love to go back to bed with a book. Rainy and dreary.
Jacob just came in and read my title, "It's not about me", then he added unless it's your birthday. Ummm, can it be about me on my birthday? I am not sure about that one.
I am studying a book called "Calm My Anxious Heart." by Linda Dillow. It is about learning contentment. Chapter two talks about being content with our circumstances. Do I look at my circumstances, my life, in the negative or in the positive? Am I like Paul was when he was in prison, and wrote... Phip. 4:11-13? Have I learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want? No. I have failed in this area many times. I am trying to see the good in everything no matter how small or how big the issue at hand is. Why? because it is not about me, but it is about the One who created me.
I encourage you to memorize Phip. 4:11-13. And hold on to the truth in verse 13, I can do all things through Christ, who gives me strength. ALL things is All things. Thanks Lord.
