Psalm 131
My heart is not proud, O Lord,
my eyes are not haughty;
I do not concern myself with great matters
or things too wonderful for me.
But I have stilled and quieted my soul;
like a weaned child with its mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD
both now and forevermore.

'I have stilled and quieted my soul'....... satisfied, content with my lot..... I love this Psalm. :)
Yes, that's the line that caught at my heart, too. What an image to strive for!
