Phililppians 4:11-13

...for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all thing through him who gives me strength.

Jenna reminded me today that the last time time I posted on my blog was May eleventh. But instead of posting there, I'm over here xD

Reading what ... erm, Potato posted, I was reminded of what I've been reading in my devotions.
I don't even know why it reminded me of if. Maybe because she said that even though she was having some troubles in her basement and was dead beat on the way to camp, she said she had a tremendous peace. Then later on, she mentioned that she had learned something from each message.
Yeah, those two words: peace and learn. -nods- That made me think of this verse.

Because contentment comes from God. It comes from a relationship with him...
And it grows through a learning process. I figured that if Potato mentioned her peace, I could say that even though she felt at peace then, not everything is strawberries and whipped cream. Learning about this in my devotions in stressful because I try really hard to feel content. A lot of the times I manage it, but contentment is a learning process. Paul said it himself:

...for I have LEARNED to be content...

So while reading how our ninja potato had felt so at peace in the most stress filled hours might have been somewhat discouraging, it reminds us that...
Contentment comes from God and that contentment is a learning process.

Okay, that's all I have to say. I just wanted... to elaborate on Potato's peace with what I've been up to in my devos. -shrug-
