To be Content

"I say it is better to be content with what little you have. Otherwise, you will always be struggling for more, and that is like chasing the wind." -Ecclesiastes 4:6

In our society, happiness usually refers to the sense of well-being and contentment that occurs when the various aspects of our lives come into harmony with one another. When life goes south, however, our sense of happiness dissolves like a Popsicle on a hot sidewalk. Because circumstances change, our sense of happiness does too.

Our relationships in this life don't define us; our relationship with Christ does. So when our world is in disharmony, it's OKAY! This world is not our home anyways. The secret of contentment is found in the truth that when you have Jesus, you already have EVERYTHING! You can handle conflict in your relationships when you are at peace in your relationship w/Christ. And that WILL bring the greatest happiness you could ever know.

And isn't Christ enough?
