Being Content with what God gives you as a musician

Hey everyone! So today, I’m going to share with you all something that I think needs to be talked about

Let’s get into it

How to be content

So what happens is that just 5 minutes ago I had a conversation with one of my friends. 

He’s a percussionist and instrumentalist and him and I were talking about music and life. 

And he asked me about all of the things that I was doing in life. 

And to be honest with you, I felt blessed. 

I felt as if though God had placed his hand over me and said, “BE BLESSED” 

Lol, but what happens is that I started to think about all of the things that I said because I realized that I was into a whole bunch of stuff. 

Him and I started talking about life and he asked me what I was doing and I told him I’m working 2 jobs right now. 

And he then asked me about music, and I said about the blog and the EP that I have. 

And I realized, that I have done some pretty cool stuff this year and yet, I wasn’t content with my situation. 

And I felt like I had done wrong against God. 

The reason is because God had blessed me tremendously this year and yet I wasn’t content. 

I mean yeah I have a blog, but what I didn’t tell him was that my blog is growing at a good rate, 

Yeah I have 2 jobs, but what I didn’t tell him was that I’m getting a lot of hours. 

And I felt as if though I was just selfish and not thinking about all of the blessings that I had.

I’ll be honest with you, there was a kid in my high school and let me tell you about him. 

He was 6 foot 2, he was the Quarterback of the Football team, he played guitar and sang, he got good grades and I think that he was even number 3 out of 400 in the class. 

He had everything and he eventually became a lawyer. 

And honestly, I compared myself to him.

And I said to myself, “Why am I not successful like him?” 

But I realized something, that God gave me my own successes. 

He gave me blessings that are beautiful and unique to my own life. 

So why should I even compare myself to anyone? The Bible is clear that everyone will go through difficult times in their life at one point.

And I’m most definitely sure that this kid that I’m talking about had his own difficult times. 

So this is where I did something wrong against God, I wasn’t content with the perfect decisions that he had for me. 

But we must be happy with what God gives us. 

For the decisions of God are perfect every day. 

He is perfect every day.
