Contentment

Since my parents died, 
I have struggled with the questions,

"What do I do now?"

"What's my purpose?"

"Is God finished with me?"

Today while I was feeding my little lady, 
wiping her mouth, and 
stroking her forehead, 
I felt in my inner being, 
"This is what I am meant to do."

I bathe her, rub her feet with lotion, change her, 
comb her hair and she smiles.

Today she can't speak, 
but that smile speaks volumes.

God has called me to love Him first
and then love others.

This is my calling.

Tonight I feel content, 
something I haven't felt in a long time. 


This is today's picture of our bundle of JOY.
Yes, she knows contentment.
Her mommy and daddy make sure that all her needs are met.

Our Heavenly Father meets our every need.
Shouldn't we be content?

  5. Blessings to you!
    Sometimes I think we all take a look at what is going on and wonder what we are to do.
    Must be a part of growing older.

    Your lil one is so very sweet!
