Philippians – Joy in the Journey Week #11 “The Joy of Contentment” Philippians 4:10-23

Contentment = Sufficiency

Contentment = Sufficiency Happy the man who can endure the highest and lowest fortune. He, who has endured such vicissitudes with equanimity, has deprived misfortune of its powers. (Seneca)

Contentment = Sufficiency Happy the man who can endure the highest and lowest fortune. He, who has endured such vicissitudes with equanimity, has deprived misfortune of its powers. (Seneca) The sufficiency of Christ desensitizes us to circumstances.

We can experience contentment by trusting in the strength of Jesus in the good and the bad life brings our way.

We can experience contentment by trusting in the strength of Jesus in the good and the bad life brings our way. Contentment makes poor men rich; discontentment makes rich men poor. (Benjamin Franklin)

Jesus is so sufficient that anything seems like a lot. We can experience contentment by trusting in the strength of Jesus in the good and the bad life brings our way. Contentment makes poor men rich; discontentment makes rich men poor. (Benjamin Franklin) Jesus is so sufficient that anything seems like a lot.

Happiness is not contingent upon what happens.

Happiness is not contingent upon what happens. The strength of Christ within overpowers situational and adversarial difficulties. In addition, there is a reason behind all challenges.

“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances…” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)

“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances…” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18) “Consider it joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” (James 1:2-4)

Satan lures us to discontentment by getting us to question the goodness of God.

Satan lures us to discontentment by getting us to question the goodness of God. “But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.”(1 Timothy 6:6-8)
