Contentment in all things!

So...God certainly is not concerned with our comfortableness but our holiness. I was reminded of this after much sickness in our house. As I shared with all of you, we are trying, all four in our family, to focus more on contentment in our lives and with what God so richly blesses us with. Unfortunately, we have a lot to learn! After the beautiful birthday celebrations and times both kids got the sickies. I should back up and say we were also fighting it on and off again for the three weeks proceeding Vivi's birthday bash, so upwards of a month one person has been sick in our house! Mommy lost her sight of contentment two weekends back as she was wiped out after so much sicky! Still, "[I] am learning the secret to being content whether in need or in plenty" (paraphrase of Paul's verse in Philippians) which is basically keep your focus on Christ who strengthens us in all things. So...we're back to learning!
