Learning to Be Content
Pastor Wesley & Yajhna Sing · 1 min read
“I’m glad in God, far happier than you would ever guess—happy that you’re again showing such strong concern for me. Not that you ever quit praying and thinking about me. You just had no chance to show it. Actually, I don’t have a sense of needing anything personally. I’ve learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. I’m just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am.”
What an amazing way of living, being content, no matter what circumstances you face. It is a skill we all need to develop. Every new day comes with a new need. If we allow ourselves to be consumed by the ways of the world, we too will be wanting and craving new things every day. This will make us ungrateful. Let us practice the art of thanksgiving so we are content in every aspect of our lives.
