I’m new to this blog stuff, so be patient and kind.  My writings will become more intimate and profound. I used to have a blogspot titled Wilenghart’s Wisdom. I do not know what happened to it. I didn’t pay for it – the domain name? – and it vanished. I will attempt to write wisdom from my interaction with the Spirit and the Word several times a week.

I’m listening to a song by Lincoln Brewster, While I Wait. “I live by faith, and not by sight. Sometimes miracles take time. While I wait, I will worship. Lord, I’ll worship your name. While I wait, I will trust you. Lord, I’ll trust you all the same. You’re faithful every day. Your promises remain.”

This blog is about learning to live with confidence and contentment. Philippians 4:11-13 describes the Apostle Paul’s contentment: “I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through Him – Christ Jesus – who strengthens me.”

I am a disciple of Jesus Christ for many years and I’m still learning this. This is my writing about living with confidence and contentment trusting in Christ who gives me strength. Living with confidence and contentment is living without fear. My insecurities make fear my greatest enemy. I am learning how to live by faith. I am learning to be content and live without anxiety because Christ strengthens me as I keep my focus on Him.
