Paul told Timothy, "Godliness with contentment is great gain." (1 Tim 6:6) He told the Philippians, "I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content." (Phil 4:11) Contentment is a good thing.
Contentment, in fact, is an act of worship. It says, "I recognize that all I have and am is given to me by You, Lord. I am believe You to be good and loving and am grateful for all You have given me. If You give me more, I will seek diligently to be a good steward of that, too. If you take some away, I will seek to regard that as wise care for my life as a good and loving God."
Are you offering to God the worship of gratitude and contentment?
