Contentment

[Debp]

This is the day the Lord has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24

Remembering the above verse is a good way to start our day.

Also, the following verse, 1 Thessalonians 5:18:

"in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."

Give thanks in everything, not just when things are all going good. Our attitudes in life make a big difference in our days; how we see life and approach things

Instead of complaining at his lot, a contented man is thankful that his condition and circumstances are no worse than they are. Instead of greedily desiring something more than the supply of his present need, he rejoices that God still cares for him. Such an one is “content” with such as he has (Heb. 13:5). —Arthur W. Pink

Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit, which freely submits to and delights in God’s wise and fatherly disposal in every condition. —Jeremiah Burroughs

Always look up. Never look in or down.

 

[Debp]

Always look up. Never look in or down.

Isn't that the truth! It's not good to become overly introspective... concentrating on oneself too much. Instead we need to keep looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.... Hebrews 12:2. Also, if we think of others more, we can avoid too much introspection.

Yes Satan wants us to look in. Keep our focus off God and our mission. To serve others

Yes! That inner peace that transcends understanding. What a blessing it is.
