I want to change lives! I want to make the world a better place. I don’t know who you are, what kind of person you are, or what you’re trying to get out of life, but If you’re the same as everyone else, you’re probably just trying to find your way through life. Maybe you’re trying to be unique, to be noticed. Maybe you’ve been striving for the approvals of others far too long and you’ve never found it. Maybe you’ve been hiding behind a mask so long that you’ve forgotten who you really are, maybe you just feel lost in this huge world, maybe you’re feeling alone or maybe you just feel invisible.
That’s not really who you are, you were built for so much more! You’re beautiful, strong, courageous, loving, and yes, you are unique. Even if these things are hidden deep down, they’re there. And that’s all that really matters. That’s something the world can’t take away. Maybe you’ve forgotten that, so consider this your reminder.
You see, I think there is really something to the idea of contentment. If we could only learn to be happy with what we have and who we are… But that’s not going to happen if we keep thinking about ourselves, that’s a path that leads to nowhere. There are so many people who need help, people who are hurting. If you can take just a few minutes out of your day to reach those people, whether it’s talking to the broken person in the café or buying the guy who just lost his job food, you’ll change the world. And you’ll realize just how beautiful this place can be.
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will leave you; never will I forsake you.†– Hebrews 13:5
One thought on “Learning to be Happy and Content”
That was inspiring. It was simple and enough to do the job.
Thanx brother.
