I used to think I was content, but then I realized I had simply forgotten what I was missing...then when I was reminded I was discontent again.
Knowledge of what others have can bring discontent, but knowledge of what you have can bring great content: for how can we be dissatisfied with Christ within us.
The jars may be clay, but the treasure is still invaluable.
I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."
