CONTENTMENT

(John Mason's Spiritual Sayings)
 

**The deeper your self-abhorrence--the easier is self-resignation.


**Those who know they deserve nothing, will be content with anything.

**We must commit our souls to God's keeping, and submit ourselves to God's disposing.

**We should obey His revealed will, and then be resigned to His providential will.

 

**Neither contentment nor discontentment arises from the outward condition, but from the inward disposition.


**If a man is not content in the state he is in--then he will not be content in any state he would be in.

"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through Him who gives me strength." Philippians 4:11-13
