Focus: Principle of Contentment

WORD FOR TODAY
The blessedness of having God as an exceeding reward will never be known until you are contented with what the Lord has done for you. The source of your joy will only come from what you think you have and never from what you don't have!!!
************************************
Scriptural Reference
"Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. (1Timothy 6:6 -7 NKJV)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is no man who have everything and neither will there be any man who will have everything. There are people we see out there that appear to be at the top of the world but also have numerous needs. We must be thankful of God's goodness in our lives even as we hope for the best in every facet of life.

When people around you are making it, be happy and believe that God will remember you. You have a serious problem each time you hear of other people's achievement and progress and you become very sad or you hear about the misfortune of others and you are happy.

Always thank God for the many blessings you are enjoying or you've enjoyed so far. Believe that God knows what is best for you. Be mindful of the fact that discontentment accomplishes nothing but rather limits your usefulness. Remember that life is a temporary assignment and that nothing you have is truly your own.

Question For Meditation:
+ Are you contented with what the Lord has done in your life?

Prayer Point:
Lord! Thank you for what you have done, what you are doing and what you will do in Jesus name. Amen!!!

Main Emphasis
Discontentment sets in when a man sees nothing good nor appreciate what God has done in his life!!!

Have a Blessed Thursday!!!
