CONTENTMENT

(John Mason’s Spiritual Sayings)
Β 

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

**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.Β 


**We should obey HisΒ revealedΒ will, and then be resigned to HisΒ providentialΒ will.

Β 

**Neither contentment nor discontentment arises from the outward condition, but from theΒ inwardΒ disposition.Β 

**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.
Β Β 

“I have learned to beΒ contentΒ 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 beingΒ contentΒ 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
