One of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves is to feel content. With it comes a feeling of happiness, gratitude and peace. In our busy lives, it is often that feeling that spurs us on and enables us to give more and be more to others. When we are living in contentment, we also show our Heavenly Father how thankful we are for what He has given us at any given time and place. I often wonder if He doesn’t place that feeling in our hearts when we need it most. When we appreciate and cherish every day moments, the feelings of peace and reassurance seem to follow.
