Edwin gave me this devotional the other day which was an eye opener to me
It was about being content with what we have, here's a thought
Finish this sentence
I will only be happy if ______________.
these were my answers
I will only be happy if I've traveled the whole world
I will only be happy if I have The LV bag
I will only be happy if I have a bigger pay cheque
I will only be happy if I have a 3 story house with 2 cute boxers(it's a breed of a dog)
the devotional it goes on to saying how things in the world clouds us with the BEST thing we already have and we all know what that is, Jesus. What more can we ask for?So now I'm learning to be contented with all the things God has bless me with
A car to drive me to work and send people around
A house to live in
A pay cheque that covers my finances
and lot more...
so learning to say it's ok if I don't have that LV bag, it's just a bag, I've got one that has last me 1 year and i still LOVE it and thank God it's not snatched away :) annnnnd i'm going to Bali in 2 weeks on a company trip*does the victory dance and hopefully save up enough money for Aussie next year to see dear couzzie mark get married. :) so yea who needs a bag that cost 6000??I've got Jesus and thats worth a whole lot more.
