Be Contented. Give Thanks.

If you were born with a Golden Spoon in your mouth, growing up perfectly fed and in your little round cosy bubble, getting everything you desire and thinking that your life is going to be forever smooth, have you ever pondered what your life will be and the significance of the difference it means if you were born in a less fortunate family?

If you have been grumbling, dissatisfied with what you have now, being never contented, not realizing how blessed you are, have you ever wondered if you were born in a destitute family, not even be able to secure an opportunity to study in the higher education or to say the least, you have to dream to have certain thing, that anyone else can get without much consideration?

What is this life, given to us, that we are never contented, admiring and have green eyes of what others possess?

What is the cry, for you to carry a Big W Bag while seeing someone holding a LV Limited Edition bag?

It is sick and tiring, if we need to be forever self-conscious, thinking of how others will think of us, how people judge us, how do I present myself in front of others, will I be mocked? Etc.

Bible teaches us that we are not meant to judge, for at the end days, there is only one who has the authority to judge the whole earth, none other than God. For we cant live a life to please everyone, but we can and should live a life that pleases God. When God smiles.

Strengthen yourself so that current will not swipe you away. Do not conform to the world.

Friends, Be Who You Are. And in ALL circumstances, Give Thanks to the Lord and Rejoice Always.
