Fulfilled
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 1 Timothy 6:6-7
I had an amazing week with my family and friends on a vacation in the mountains of Colorado. I have been to this area many times in my life and each time there are revelations that give me time to ponder, and react when I return home. This time it was a conversation I had with my daughter regarding her enjoyment of the mountain and skiing. Her conversation with me dealt with being content where she was with her abilities, and not worrying whether she pursued more difficult slopes than what she was currently capable of performing. A lot of us look for fulfillment in the wrong places and she knew exactly where she needed to be content. So many of us miss that moment when we are content with ourselves and what we are capable of doing. Too many people push themselves to impress someone else and it could result in negative consequences. God is already impressed with us and he wants us to pursue things that are not of this world, but of spiritual gain. When we start worrying about whatever other people think is when no longer become fulfilled. Become fulfilled with God by your side.
Have a great weekend.
