I Have Learned to Be Content
Scripture References: Philippians 4:11

We know that Jesus is powerful. After all, He raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, and “rebuked” nature. There’s no doubt that He can do whatever He wants, any time He wants.
But is it possible for Him to calm my soul?
Our lives can be full of anxiety, fear, suspicion, danger, and sadness. We call on God to help us, but do we actually believe He can? Or, more specifically, how can we be know if He has?
For that, we turn to the Psalms of Lament. These psalms make up nearly 1/3 of the book of Psalms, and they are very relatable when we find ourselves in tough times. They also teach us a lot about our own faith and how it practically intersects with the world around us.

CloseWhat is contentment, and why is it so important in the life of a Christian? Many of us seek for it constantly, as if it's some elusive feeling that we can only find once we're enlightened. As Paul says in Philippians 4:11 though, contentment isn't something we acquire, it's something we learn. Here's how you can learn it too.
