Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. Philippians 4:11
In the instant gratification society we live in there is a break down on every corner. People change jobs like they change sheets on their bed…once a year. They change their marriages like they change houses…once every fifteen years. And change churches like they change cars...once every five years. This society promotes these changes by emphasizing the grass is always greener on the other side. The problem with that is it’s a lie!
There is a cure for discontentment….repentance! Most of the time, we do not need to change our job, our church, or our spouse. What we need to change is us! Consider what Paul told Timothy; “But godliness with contentment is great gain. 1 Timothy 6:6”
