Paul says one o the secrets if happiness is being content, I like to look at it this way; "Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor."
- Benjamin Franklin
Sadly you won't find historically that he was a Christian, but Ironically his quote is biblical truth, thus Christ like in nature. Think about it, pray about it, test it, are you content, or discontent? Why? If you're lacking in an area, why? I submit that you don't have a godly perspective on that area.
Pray for his perspective, for satisfaction in him, and watch contentment be there.
Examples usually talk about money, and how if you have 100 dollars you're richer than 90% of the rest of the world. But what about looks? Are you content there? do you take your opinion about them, or Gods? Whatever it may be, have you looked at it from His perspective? I pray today you stop and look, pray for strength...pray
