What is the secret of it and how can we attain it. We see today that fame and fortune do not ensure it. Not a great looking spouse or the American dream.
"Godliness with contentment is GREAT gain," the Bible teaches us. We know it's true when we live there-you know, those times when your heart is at rest in God's will, trusting, believing, hoping and ENJOY-
ING His peace and His blessings. But how terribly easy it is to long for the not- given blessings. 'More, more, more,' our hearts cry! How sad that we go there by default more often than not since the fall in Eden. Then the joy we could be enjoying is stolen away.
I pray we'd all stop and learn that this world cannot give us the contentment we long for; it only comes from above. And may the grace of God bestow true contentment so that we can live lives that honor the great Giver and enjoy His many blessings in a way that brings Him the glory He desires and deserves.
He alone can truly satisfy our insatiable hearts. Let it be!!
