Thank you for your post. I feel myself trying to keep up with the Jones in the world and in the church. It's hard. And it's something that I've been working on since I got married. God has been teaching me a lot about being satisfied. Satisfied with what I have and that everything I have is a gift and a blessing. Satisfied with who GOD made me and that I am good enough to be His child. Satisfied to just be His child, that there's nothing I can do to be better than another one of His children and nothing I can do to truly fall out of His grasp. Thanks for your honesty.Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08978036026066329022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855892413122659715.post-23813147150613178632009-01-16T23:33:33.853-08:002009-01-16T23:33:33.853-08:00You have a wonderful way of sharing your heart!You have a wonderful way of sharing your heart!Jennyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02530332005314466736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855892413122659715.post-53937744312087832182009-01-17T09:52:15.622-08:002009-01-17T09:52:15.622-08:00I love it Denise.I love your humility.Great words....I love it Denise.<br>I love your humility.<br>Great words.Linda Vujnovhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15552179424676393069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855892413122659715.post-20813716248670891912009-01-20T20:31:36.387-08:002009-01-20T20:31:36.387-08:00excellent post denise!!excellent post denise!!Sarah Markleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15745807641579275163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1855892413122659715.post-59771049323631258142009-01-25T14:47:09.894-08:002009-01-25T14:47:09.894-08:00i'm so glad you finally feel like a jones. no...i'm so glad you finally feel like a jones. now you can be as imperfect and unfinished as the rest of us. now that we are fully His, He can have His way with us.
