The Baby Wars

Have you ever felt like "if I only had this, I could be happy"? I think we all have. If I only had a new job - I could be happy. If I only had a boyfriend/girlfriend I would be happy. If my loved one could only be healed, I would be happy. I think one of the keys to finding peace and contentment is to try not to ask God to give us stuff to make us happy and to instead pray that He will teach us to love Him the way He deserves AND to give us the wisdom and strength we need to have faith in Him and trust Him that we will be ok - even if we don't get what we want. That's hard to do!
