Life can be so hard. Live can be so frustrating. Life can be so.....so....daily! People everywhere face disappointments, disarray, downfalls, delays, drawbacks, and doldrums.
It's unavoidable. That's life! The trick is to face life's twists and turns with grace. We yearn to be the kind of believers who exude contentment-----that quality of serene calmness. But that's hard to do!
Contentment doesn't come naturally, and isn't always learned quickly. But it can be learned. You can, like Paul, say, "I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content." With God's help we can find satisfaction in daily living that cannot be ruffled by circumstances. The key is learning to trust that He is in control of every situation and I am in control of my response to that situation.
