No matter where you are, or what you've gone through, it's time to pause and think about the people and things in your life that you're thankful for.
Personally, I'm grateful that my family is healthy and we were able to fill our bellies today. We've got shelter and warmth to cradle us tonight and the freedom to sleep soundly. Life is good.
Philippians 4:10-14 (The Message)
Content Whatever the Circumstances
10-14I'm glad in God, far happier than you would ever guess—happy that you're again showing such strong concern for me. Not that you ever quit praying and thinking about me. You just had no chance to show it. Actually, I don't have a sense of needing anything personally. I've learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. I'm just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I've found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am. I don't mean that your help didn't mean a lot to me—it did. It was a beautiful thing that you came alongside me in my troubles.
Good Night
