Contentment. It washed over me as I sipped my coffee while reading my Bible. I felt it rush through my heart as I met up with a childhood friend, chatted over coffee, took a walk in this incredible weather. And again as I tried new food at a middle eastern restuarant. Again as I worshipped with some brothers in Christ. And AGAIN as I bonded with some sweet little boys.
Everywhere. God poured out contentment over my heart little by little all day long. It built and built and built.
Oh sweet, blissful contentment.
Jesus, you bring contentment. You see the depths of my heart and you love me the same. You see the areas where I hide my ugly feelings of discontentment. You shine light in the darkness. You show me a glimpse of what it's like to be content in you.
Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus.
