Are You Contented

Are you contented?

God gave us brain for knowledge
              And heart for love.
But He seemed to forget contentment.

If God gave us contentment,
            there will be no more competition,
            no more street rallies,
            no more chaos.
We will be happy, satisfied, and pleased.

Yet, there will be no more dreams,
             no more friends to talk to,
             no more efforts to be the best,
             no more adventures to make.
We need NO MORE GOD.

Are you contented?

Yes I am and I believe it is because I have need of and trust in Jesus. My desire is to please him so I continue to strive and love those around me. He alows me contentment within my struggles and victories.
