The answer to your question is “yes”. :-)

It is a decision to be content, with the wisdom of knowing that everything will be for a better purpose, by faith (not a generic “faith” but a faith in Christ) even if I can not see it at the moment, and being willing to accept life as God has given it to me. That is simple, but not easy. The part of Paul’s writings that I quoted above is from the book of Philippines, where Paul is in chains awaiting execution! I, like Paul, have more than a “religion” I have a relationship with the living Christ. Any wisdom that I may display, is loaned to me by Him.

Right now I have a bummed up knee, I work for myself, and this is my busy time. I have a choice to make, I can be very upset because I am letting down my costumers and not making any money; or I can enjoy myself sitting here and “playing” on the computer knowing that everything will work out just fine. I chose the latter, it is as simple as that.
