Hi Clark,

Being content in God's will for us...means to me removing the selfishness this human flesh wants me to have and walking in the Spiritual light of Him.

Thanks for sharing.

Take care
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
