I named this story this title because it was godsent. Into the lives of two people that were destined to be together, the signs were all there. Perhaps there was no way of knowing that anything could come of this. Here, where silence comes within the room, but outside, the passing sound of the traffic is continuous. When enough time passes by, perhaps I'll find it easier to look back and easier to speak of it all, and I wonder whether sufficient time could ever be.

Our society changes constantly, and the values that currently dominate it did not come from God. Nowhere is this more evident than in the church, where the role of women has become the subject of hot debate and disagreement. The changed values that have become an accepted part of a woman's role in society are having a profound impact on our Lord's precious church, and as Christian women we have a responsibility to know what God has said about the role He intends for us to fill, whether in our homes, in our communities, or in His church. This book is intended to help us fulfill that task, so that we can pass along a clear and accurate understanding of what God has said about our role in the church to each new generation of Christian sisters. If He has given us a role that is different from our brothers' place in the church, that does not mean He values us less; it means He has specific responsibilities that only we can fulfill. Let us strive to "understand what the will of the Lord is" rather than blindly follow the will of the world around us.

When Eve was in the garden she was content - until she took her eyes off the many blessings God had given her - a beautiful home, a loving husband, and a caring heavenly Father. Her contentment vanished only after she focused on the one thing she was not supposed to have. How often do we do this? Despite the many blessings that God gives, we look around for things we don't (or maybeshouldn't) have. What happens then? We grow dissatisfied with the blessings we do have. What makes you discontent? If you set your eyes only on Jesus, could you be truly content? Searching for Contentment explores what God's word reveals about the things that cause us to be discontented, and focuses on how we can learn to be content with the joy and blessings He offers in Christ.
