Contentment

Timothy6: 6-10

6But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.

Contentment…..a concept that is not widely accepted in our society today. It seems that no one wants you to be content. You must have more, want more and need more, less you get left behind, and not have all that you can possibly amass. However when it comes to God, people take the exact opposite approach. If most people would spend half the time working on their relationship with the Lord, that they spend working on their career, or what they are buying next, they would find a level of peace, and a better sense of direction. I am not saying that we should ditch everything in an attempt to gain spirituality. We are Christians, not Buddhist, but we should put more trust, and faith in the Lord and his plan. I promise you, he will make the crooked way straight, and he will provide what you need.

Peace, Rev.T
