Amen. That's great you've had that time with them. Sometimes I get discouraged and lonely... I'm the oldest in a large family and several of my siblings have left home so my siblings that are still at home are younger. I love them of course but miss the ones closer to my age.
Like you said, contentment is key. Sometimes I just wish I could go out and do something big for God but I do feel like this is where He has me for now.
I help my family on the farm we work on, and often when I don't know what to do I'll resort to the sewing machine.

Or sometimes my pen and paper... or sitting at my keyboard and singing, sending my friends fuzzy covers of my fave songs.
