chosen this path because it’s what I believe is pleasing to my God. Pleasing him is more satisfying to me than pleasing myself or being happy. It’s about contentment, which doesn’t mean being fine. It means peace about who you are. Sometimes, I do feel cheated because I haven’t been able to experience certain things in life, but then I remember that it’s not about me. As a believer in Christ, you accept that this isn’t all there is to life. There’s a life to come. That will be a happy time. So a little suffering here isn’t agonizing. It’s just a minor inconvenience.
