"If I could just have a little more . . . if my situation were just a little different! My plan for my life would be perfect--if it would just come true!"
It is often obvious how little we are in control of our lives, and discontent seems like a natural response to not getting what we want. But it's a dangerous attitude that drives us away from God--and, ironically, getting what we want wouldn't fix it! So what will?
Megan Hill takes us on a month-long journey to lift our eyes from our own expectations for our lives and fix them on the God who is more reliable than our changing circumstances--and who ordains them for our good. This daily devotional teaches us the value of contentment, helps us to cultivate a thankful heart, and provides immensely practical approaches for pursuing contentment in specific types of circumstances that trigger our worry and anxiety.
