Sunday's devotion

On Sunday, my devotion was titled "Choose to be free". I was reminded of how bound I was almost a year ago as I was focusing on what I did not have instead of being content with what I did have. I focused way too much on my circumstances and was miserable. When I finally let go, I felt so much better and free just like the article said. One line that stuck out to me in the article was "The outcome of our lives is not determined by what happens to us but by how we respond to what happens to us." This is so true. It is all about a choice(how we respond). We can choose to be miserable or free. I was basing my happiness on whether I would have a child or not. But, happiness cannot be determined by what happens to us. We have to be happy and content in knowing that God is in control, and He knows what is best for us. His grace is sufficient.
