Content In All Things
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. l have lean1ed 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 in all things prayer
I want to pray in sadness when my heart is in tears.
I want to pray in
Happiness when everything seems clear. I want 1ny humor along with
My laughter to overcome my sadness and sorrow when blackness
Surrounds. Wake to the morning light with a will for living, and a
Reason to place my feet upon the ground. I trust for the ones I loved
And lost that there is a better life after death. That we will be reunited
In a heavenly realm, and while I am on earth I hope to finish what is
Left. Requesting the Lord to be at my helm. I want to be spirit-filled
When physically empty. Giving myself a chance to bring comfort to my
Own reality. I want to have acceptance in my imperfection. I hope to
Take a stance to guide people with direction. I hope to be honest when
Everybody accepts deception. I hope I can make a promise to find self-
Esteem in my reflection. Blessed to find wisdom in being the hero and
The fool. Blessed to find freedom in knowing living is
More than just pursuing riches and jewels. Take the good with the bad,
Learn from each one, and add, to grow from each one.
In sun and rain,
Calm and storm, loss and gain, bliss and mourn, with and without,
Abundance and poverty, confidence and doubt, Insignificance
And in Sovereignty. Do my best to endure what life brings, and try to
Find balance. Look within myself to find God and
.mner peace m. a
World that is not always content.
