Are you content with your life right now? To be honest, I'm not. I've always looked to the next best thing. Now don't get me wrong, I love school and I love missions. The problem is I'm so excited about the future that it's hard to live in the moment and find contentment right here.
I've asked my mother countless times, "how do you find contentment?" Her answer always had me confused until now. She would say to find contentment one needs to go closer to God. Do everything for His glory not for the glory of man. When challenges come praise God and thank Him for the little things. In this time of waiting and working I've gotten so irritated sitting in classes that I've forgotten to thank God for the opportunity. Going to school to learn Bible and theology was impossible. I never thought that the finances would come through for me, And yet here I am taking the opportunity people would love to have. So how do you find contentment? Praise God for what you have. It's hard at first and you'll have to start small, but you have to start somewhere. Appreciate what you have and stop looking for what you don't. This is a start to finding contentment., Remember it's a growing process. Ask God to give you contentment in the moment and place you're living in. You'll see just how great life can be when you live a content life.

AuthorI am a missionary. Currently studying at Bethany Global University. The ultimate God dream is to go to Mongolia. I believe God has called me to minister to the Mongolian nomads, they are the unreached people of our world. With over 3 million people in Mongolia, there are only around 70 churches. These churches are all in cities, thus leaving the nomads on their own. I am a missionary, this is my calling, and this is my story. Please Contact me to find out how to donate.Archives
