I want to be a woman of focus. I don't want to live by default, but by design.
Contentment is accepting God's sovereign control over all of life's circumstances.
Holy Father, forgive me for grumbling. I know I've sounded just like the Israelites. I long to dwell not on the If Onlys but on You. Make me wise like the old woodcutter - content with what I know, not perturbed by what I don't know.
Sadly, God mentions no crowned nags in Proverbs.
Ultimately, contentment is more a shift in attitude than a change in circumstances.
Sometimes what is most important to us is not obvious and can be seen only by how we respond to our husbands in everyday life.
