Lately, I have been learning how to be content. This season, God has been teaching me to be patient, yet not give up on my dreams. It is so easy to feel discouraged when things do not go as planned or circumstances cause things to take longer than planned. How do you respond to disappointments? If things don't go your way how do you react? Those are some of the questions that have been running through my mind. How do you remain content with your life, yet not become stagnant or spiritual lazy? Think of a seedling. It is small and still growing, yet has a long life ahead. It might not appear to be that promising, yet at any moment it could grown strong and tall. Likewise, God gives us growth spurts when we least expect it. We need to not be overcome with discouragement but instead focus on the hope Christ has given us.
