In August, my husband read me a blog post on contentment that really grabbed my attention {You can find it here.} The post describes how gratitude and contentment are NOT the same. I always used to think they were. Contentment is a far harder discipline, because sometimes we are given or not given what we want. It's easy to say "Thank You" for our blessings. It's a totally different exercise to be content in circumstances that are less than stellar. Join me in November as we write out verses on what it means to be content!

There are many ways you can use these verses. You can read and meditate on them. You can write them out as you meditate on them. You can read them and then write about them in a journal or journaling Bible. You could do verse mapping with them (See this post). Here are some of the items I use...

A single column journaling Bible allows you to make notes in the margins.
