CONTENTED
Today's reading:  Ezekiel 43-48


"As to property, the priests will not have any, for I alone am their inheritance."  Ezekiel 44:28 NLT

Would I have been content had I been a priest?  To see all my friends mowing their lawns, landscaping their yards, puttering around in their gardens?

Would I have been satisfied to know my lot in life, my calling, my mission, my purpose, my reason for birth was to serve the Lord, in His house, all the days of my life?

Would He have been enough?

Is He?

Contented-ness is feeling or showing satisfaction in one's possessions, status or situation.

Am I content with God?  Is He enough (possessions) for me?  Where I rank in His eyes (status) is it high enough, is His love deep enough, is His grace big enough?  Is where He has me in life (situation) suiting me because I know it's where He needs me for the time being--or from now on?

Being His daughter makes me a priest--He is all I need...but is He all I want?
