Contentment

I am very thankful to God coz I am slowly going back to my old self. I have more time with myself and with Him. I am thankful because I was able to regain my habit of going to the adoration chapel like I used to only that I decided to change my adoration day. It used to be every Wednesdays, but I chose to change it to Monday; primarily because it is good to start the week with that.

I am quite slow in recovering but I know God will lead me there one day at a time. I know there are still a lot of challenges along the way but it is comforting to know that I will never be alone, He will always be there for me.

If there's one that I learned from the past days, that is the value of contentment.

One of the great mysteries of Christianity is contentment. At least one must presume it is a mystery, because so few people live it. Yet contentment is not something that's found; it is an attitude.

Contentment is an attitude of the heart. I believe that contentment does not mean being satisfied where you are, rather knowing God's plan for your life. It is very hard to be contented with the things we have maybe because of a faerful spirit. We should stand up to our fear and trust God that He will provide us the things we need and our heart's desires. He may not give it at once, but He has the proper timing when to answer our needs - and in that contentment there is truth, the joy of contentment without the pleasure of satisfaction.

For now, I just wanted to live my life one day at a time, keeping in mind to live not only for myself but for others. I should be strong for the people around me who love me
