contentment.

Contentment.
What a word.
A confusing concept.
Such a challenge.

Present moment peace & purpose.
That's the definition I've settled on.
Can't be attached to circumstance.
Or status.
Or the illusion of security.

Must be anchored elsewhere.
Or else it will become a noose.

A life-giving, life-breathing contentment...
Peace & purpose in whatever the present may be 

is only found when anchored in HIS Presence.

Why is this so clumsy a process?
Trusting HIS provision for paths ahead.
Refusing the temptation to rush ahead,
Resting in the now.
The good, the hard, the confusing.
To count it all joy...

This is the call.
The invitation.
I accepted HIS offer.
It seems I have a lot to learn...
Grateful for my ever-faithful GUIDE.
