Contentment leads to peace

All of life changes. Life by its very nature changes. Everything changes.
As we go through the ups and downs of changes it is easy to sometimes question the Master's plan.
How do we live a more stable life in the midst of ever-changing situations and circumstances?
The apostle Paul learned how to face and live with these constantly changing circumstances (Phil 10-14). Overcoming leads to peace. How do we overcome? We tend to respond to problems emotionally not spiritually. Some people are always looking for greener pastures. Faith in Christ can give us the same peace Paul had, by teaching us to be content with our circumstances, free from worry.

Remember that no matter what problems come your way today, whether today is an up or a down, learn to take comfort in being content. As you go through the day, count your blessings, and be like Paul--content and free from worry.

Just another thought to consider.
