Be Content!

Good Morning! As I spend time with God He gives me my scripture for the day. So I thought why not share them with you guys!
  Today's scripture comes from Philippians 4:11, "Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content." I love this scripture! If you don't already know I have a major issue with control and sometimes I want things to go faster than they are going or I immediately want things to go my way. How many of you watch reality tv (La La, Toya, Tiny & TI) any show that falls along those lines. Anyway, how many of you have see them and are like, "God I wish I had a life like theirs. I wish I had money like theirs.(this is my favorite one) I wish I had a relationship like theirs." I am sooooo guilty of this. We have got to realize that we need to be content and thankful for the state that we are in. We don't know what goes on behind closed doors in those peoples lives. We don't see their struggles or even how they got all this money.We can not rush God. Cause let me tell you something I rushed God, prayed and prayed for something and when He gave it to me(cause God gives us what we ask for) I had no peace at ALL!! I should've been content with the things and the life I had. Stop trying to have God alter your life on the things you want than what you need. God is a provider and He knows your hearts every desire! CALM DOWN! In due time when you're ready God will give it to you. And trust me Gods time is better than mans time.
