Contented Spirits

I don't have too much to say, for a change. Just that life is really more than I could ask for in every way good. Dave explained once that to be content and satisfied in God and His presence in me is to say that even if I were on the street corner smelly, naked, and utterly alone, I could still lift my hands to the heavens and sing and shout my praises to God.

I can't say that I feel completely that way right now... I really don't want to be naked on a street corner or anything... but still I am so content in what He has given me! His provision. His love. His sacrifice. The limitation He has put on Himself within His all-powerfulness to relate with me. The relationships, glorious relationships, He has allowed me to have!! The amazing opportunities for greatness and even humility.

I could keep going but no need to keep you here for a year or so trying to read and decipher these things. If they could even be contained in that time or in my writing, I seriously doubt. Regardless, I write today only to speak of my realization of just how blessed I am. Really, I don't know how I manage to contain this either... so much of me wants to belt it out at the top of my lungs for the world to hear: MY GOD IS GREAT AND LIFE IS GRAND!!!
