Well, that content feeling that brings inspiration and motivation to overcome the struggles we face, it is also optional for us through Christ, but your struggles may not be so easily accomplished, the point is we have a God who is able to do exceeding abundantly, more than we can ever ask or think of Him.
I hope these are only viewed as words of encouragement for you...

An ode to wisdom teeth...
Oh,little wisdom teeth,how I miss thee.
I shall never forget the day,after a month of splitting headaches
my dentist telling me that you,my little teeth
were growing in,in such a most peculiar way.
"They must come out!" he said.
"But,alas...I am but a mere Dentist,you my fat little friend,shall need to see an Oral Surgeon!"
My heart raced at the thought of this...what is this Oral Surgeon he speaks of?
So the date was set.
I was to go under multiple gases & drugs to assure I would not awaken during the removal of my
little teeth,that if left in would only go astray & take the rest of their brothers & sisters down with them into an enamal chipped hell.
A few hours later I awoke...sooooooo sleepy.
My mouth now filled with the gaping holds where all 4 of you once were.
No pain,just a hollow reminder of what you could have,but never were.
As the drugs wore off,my friends tried to scare me of stories of dry socket & other nasty things that could happen after such an ordeal.
Oh,how I prayed...
"Dear Lord,please don't let me get dry socket..I will do anything you ask..I'll never sin again..I promise!"
Because this is what you do when you are scared...you promise God outlandish things,thinking,perhaps this last time he'll let me slide & do me a solid.
He always does you a solid.
You just don't realize it most of the time because you are too busy trying to put one over on him.
So,my dear sweet wisdom teeth...sometimes I think back to where you tried to spring forth from,frantically feeling with my tongue where the hard spaces now reside and wonder,oh I wonder if your in a better place...in little tooth heaven. Hoping you hold me no ill will for what had to be done.

[SUP]29 [/SUP]And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
The past five months have been such a test of my faith. As I drove down the road today, I said
to myself- with tears pouring down my face- this divorce has taken so much from me. Am I to lose
everything?" That was when the word of God came to me and said, "You told me you will give it all
up for me, is that still not so? How can you say everything when you have ME! Am I not sufficient
enough for you?"
Take this whole world but give me Jesus!!!

My soon to be 15 year old has had four teeth pulled. The last time was because we saw white
coming through the middle of his gum. I brought him into the dentist and he said there was no
way he could still have baby teeth. Low and behold after an xray they found a tooth on both
sides of his top teeth. They pulled the teeth that were there and then tried telling me that they
were going to hook this wire to his teeth inside his gum and pull them out. I told my son no they
aren't. We are going to pray and those teeth are coming down out of the gums themselves. We
prayed and the teeth came down. Not just down but they came in straight!!! The power of prayer!!!

Just thought I would post this song in the middle of doing a 'like' on all the posts on this page, just did, but, just so you know that I liked the ones especially well with green in them in some way 
The Lord leads, yes, He is enough, Yes, He is a river, the Spirit slakes our thirst, He is our river, holy and pure, and, for littleChristone, more filling than any chocolate could ever give you happiness He is Lord, and, will provide you waters, living waters, that shall never run dry. Here is an old gospel hymn that's been accoustisized well by this guy [video=youtube;FM4uiCuo-iw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FM4uiCuo-iw[/video]
