Seeking contentment
2 May 2008
“Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit which freely submits to and delights in God’s wise and fatherly disposal of every condition.”
- Jeremiah Burroughs, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment (listen to a discussion of the book here, highly recommended)
“…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 who strengthens me.”
- The Apostle Paul, Philippians 4:11-13
