Contentment

Few people ever reach contentment. One poet put it this way:

As a rule, man's a fool

When it's hot, he wants it cool

And when it's cool, he wants it hot,

Always wanting what is not

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee nor forsale thee.

Contentment is wrapped in trust in the Giver of peace and satisfaction. Every now and then a person will develop a spiritual thirst for something missing in his or her life. These people are condidates for God's offer of salvation. Trusting in Christ gives joy and peace as never known before.

Possessions, pursuits, and pleasures are temporary. Only Jesus can satisfy your soul.
