Contentment in Christ says,
"I am not concerned with comparing where I am in my life right now to where others are. I am going to be thankful to the Lord for what I do have and where I currently am.

I will keep moving forward in His strength without feeling pitiful for myself!"

Depending on who you talk to, the term “dating” can mean anything. In this regard, just trust that I mean courtship and I will define it in this post. 2.) This post is for all those who are both currently pursuing courtship and especially those who are not currently pursuing courtship but would like some pointers once God opens doors in that area.
