"Now there is great gain in godliness with contentment, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world." 1 Timothy 6:6-7

Contentment
I was reading a friend and fellow blogger's blog a few days ago, and she posted a link to another blog for a specific post about contentment. I can honestly say that is one of my biggest struggles right now. I love my life, don't get me wrong, but I always find myself longing for the next step. Buying a home, kids, buying a home... Ok so the home part is definitely a biggie. We are so blessed to be where we are. We live rent free with Seth's grandfather, we have the master bedroom and bath, a cleaning lady who comes once every 2 weeks, Seth's parents right next door so we can get out of our house when we need to. I mean really, it's not a bad set up... for now. Obviously, we want our own place eventually. I'd like one sooner rather than later, but you have to have this thing called a downpayment and when you're husband hurts his back and can't work, it is trickier to save for one. God is so good though and He is our provider. I have to keep reminding myself of that fact! He also knows what we need when we need it, including a house of our own. So the next few weeks I'm going to be on a journey. A journey to contentment. I hope you'll join me!
