Welcome Back to our final lesson in this series on contentment.
We are learning how the scriptures drive home the truth and the ability to be:
Content with our Possessions
Content with our People
Content with our Position in Christ
Over the past several weeks we have looked at the truths of:
- CONTENTMENT, which is defined as:
Internal satisfaction which does not demand changes in external circumstances.
- Comparison is the enemy of Contentment - because it rarely focuses on what we have.
It focuses on what somebody else has and, in comparison, what we lack.
Comparison demands, “Why them and not me?”
- Identity - and that for those of us who follow Jesus, We belong to Him and that changes things.
Last week we learned how:
Affluence (our abundant wealth) often detours us from properly placing our hope.
We tend to grow arrogant in our abundance - looking down on those who don’t have what we have
or
We tend to trust or expect our abundance to somehow fill a void that only God can fill.
We think that the many family or friends will fill the void - BUT PEOPLE FAIL.
We think that more stuff will satisfy the emptiness - BUT STUFF FAILS.
We think that more recognition will make us feel better - BUT OPINIONS CHANGE.
