Be Content With What Is

" Be content with what is" was the phrase to receive a free cookie today at Dixie Cafe. Talk about the Lord and His many ways of speaking! To be honest with you I had been fighting God over His plans. I have been so focused on my idea instead of His. To also choose joy no matter where He places me. Especially after applying to many places and this is the one God chooses for me. Its hard to accept especially because  I don't feel it relates to my passion and I am a college graduate.

 On top of that I have been puzzled with God you have given me a heart for missions and  yet this is what you choose? I can't really tell you what the Lord is doing! He has thrown me through a loop. However, I know all things we go through produces character.  This may not be my idea but I can choose to make it my mission ground by being a smile to the customers. To choose hope knowing that its just a season in my life.

That all of the waiting is preparation for His perfect timing. There have been so many recent thoughts of where I thought I could see myself from New York, BCM ministry or even going for my Masters in counseling. I don't know where God is going to take me in this season but I do know when we choose to be content that were more at peace. I am very much learning to release my dreams to God! Therefore, what is that you need to be content in?
