Contentment. 02/03/2010
3 Comments
 
  I've once again been bombarded with needs.  Ok... wants.  I was bloggering (ok, what's the word for blog 'surfing' anyways) on different craft blogs last night, and I wanted to drop everything and run to the nearest fabric store!! There are SOO many fun projects out there that I WANT WANT WANT to do!!  I went to bed a little unsettled, with ideas running through my mind, wishing I had the budget to just go get whatever I needed to create all these fun things!

  I actually mentioned feeling this way not long ago, in a previous post about decorating my home.  That feel of discontentment creeps up and you without warning, and soon, you just want, want, want.  Or, in my mind, need, need, need!  Well laying in bed, I reached for my daily devotional and noticed the verse for the day, Hebrews 13:5!!  How fitting!  And I didn't even realize until this morning, that is the same verse I posted last time about this subject. :)  Then, browsing the internet a bit ago, I ran into it again.  (OK... I'm listening!!)

Hebrews 13:5 KJV
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

  So let us all (myself mostly) remember to be content with where we are in life.  Be content with what we have.  Be content with who we are.  Always striving, always growing and learning, but always content.

Wanted to add a little summer to your day, with the colorful flower photos.  They were actually taken on our honeymoon, the summer of '08. 

Also, keep checking back here! I plan on working on getting some new designs up for the Perfect Pacis!! It's my main project for today, so I'm hoping to get a good start on it.  Yes, I am the type to have 18 projects going at once (give or take), and eventually have to force myself to just finish one thing before I can start another.  This would be why my "new January products" never happened. Oops!   I'd better get busy! :) 
   God bless your day, and grant you the contentment you need!
