Beautiful message, what a joy to be content in the Lord, it is hard for some of us to be content , whether in prosperity or humble means, but when we place our contentment in Jesus, ..He never fails and our hearts can be at rest.

My sister told me something one day while I was shopping and really wanted some clothes, but couldn’t afford them. She said, “Linda, you’re just the same with out them. Next time you come shopping, there will just be something else.”

It really helped me put things in perspective. Things come and go and they never really change who I am as a person. The things that change me are my relationship with God, reading the Bible, family, friends, etc. I realized that I could have no things at all and still be content because those are the important things to have in life.
