Being Content With What You Have Is a Virtue
Being Content With What You Have
Are the riches in life what
you wish to obtain?
"Godliness with contentment
is of great gain."
Being content and Godly
is often difficult to do.
With the constant plasures
of life alluring you.
"How can one be content?"
You may ask.
God will never require of you
an impossible task.
A peace beyond understanding
you will find.
When you begin to walk
with a Christ-like mind.
The tresure of knowing Jesus
will abide very well.
He gives more joy than words could ever tell!
"Take this world but give me Jesus,"
will be your heart's cry.
All of your needs--God will supply!
True contentment comes from
falling in love with him.
His grace is sufficient for what
"feels empty within."
Don't be "held down" by
things only temporary.
Enter God's haven of rest... His sanctuary!
The joy of knowing Jesus will
bring peace to your soul!
By allowing him to bring restoration
and to make you whole!
