contentment

From By Every Word:

"Contentment is a disposition of the heart that freely and joyfully submits to God's will, whatever that will may be." -- Stephen Altrogge, The Greener Grass Conspiracy


The secret of contentment is believing that, in every situation and circumstance, my heavenly Father is ultimately in control and is at work for my ultimate happiness and truest good – training me to be able to better know, love and trust Him and His will for my life, as I rely on his grace and His Word, through Christ, in the power of the Spirit. (Phil. 4:10-13; Deut. 8:2-9; Heb. 12:5-11; 2 Cor. 4:7-18; 12:7-10; Phil. 1:12-18)
