Chapter 7 – “The Power of Contentment”

“The endless cycle of wanting more keeps us from ever being able to sit back and enjoy this life.  Solomon said, “Those who love money will never have enough.  How absurd to think that wealth brings true happiness!” (Eccles. 5:10 NLT).  But as Paul wrote, “Godliness with contentment is a great gain” (1 Tim. 6:6).  When we choose to be content, we are able to accept and rejoice in whatever situation we find ourselves.  Instead of worrying about every possibility lurking around the corner, we leave the future in God’s hand and trust He knows what He is doing.”
