Good Morning All!
I hope this weekend has allowed you a little R & R and that this week ahead doesn't look too frightening!
For the last two weeks, we have been pondering scriptures on joy and peace. And one of the greatest stealers of both, I think, is discontentment. Having that feeling that you want more or deserve more or that envious feeling that someone has what you want or deserve.
So, tonight, we will finish watching a great sermon by Joyce Meyer called "Consistently Content."
Last week, she began Pt 1 with a line that I absolutely love. She said: There are millions of people in the world who have what you say you want and they are still not happy either.
Now, that's not to say that we should not strive for more in our life or strive to achieve things, but backing that need for more should be the certainly that God is behind your en devours or else the en devour will be fruitless anyway and will leave us with that sense of discontentment.
The link for Part 2 of "Consistently Content" is on Week 3's post (the second link.) Please watch it if you can't join us tonight at 6:45-8:00 at my house.
And how appropriate that our next fruit of the spirit is: long suffering or patience! Choosing to be content in our lives and to find peace and joy in our daily walk will sometimes take GREAT patience!
Enjoy this week and look for your week of scriptures on PATIENCE tomorrow.
God Bless.
