Striving to be Content
Posted in Family, Military Life, and Photography
But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. ~ I Timothy 6:6-8 ~ There are times in life that I struggle with being content with where we are at or what we are doing.
