Contented ... in Christ Jesus!






Are You Contented Aka Pleased 
With What You Already Have!?! 

Are You Contented With 
And 
In The Lord Christ!?! 

It Is One Thing To Be Contented
And
Quite Another To Think That 
You Did "It" All By Yourself
And
Vainly Glory In Your Accomplishments!

Beloved, 

No Committed Christian 
Should So Depart From The Righteous Way 
And
Become So Proud Of Themselves 
To Dare Take The Glory Of The Lord Unto Themselves 
So That The Lord Must Humble Them 
And
Cause Them To Be Contented To Eat Grass For A Season 
In Order For Them To See The Light Of Saving Truth! 

Arrogant, Proud 
And
Pompously Foolish King Nebuchadnezzar Of Babylon 
Learned This Lesson The Hard Way! 

There Is Contentment 
And
There Is Contentment In Christ! 

There Is Having Satisfaction With Myself 
And
There Is Satisfaction In Ridding Me Of Self! 

Little With Contentment 
Is 
Of Great Gain When We Acknowledge That 
It Is The Living God Who Ever So Graciously Provides 
Every Last Thing That We Call Our Own! 

Like Everything Else In The Christian
We Have The Authority
The Freewill
The Freedom 
To Daily Decide ... By Almighty God's Great Grace
To Be Contented With What The Lord  ... In Love 
Has Graciously Provided
Be It Little Or Much! 

There Is No Profit In Baseless Pride!

Let Us From This Moment On Say 
"Thank You, Lord!" 
And
Glory In The Lord Of Life
Even As We Determine To Be Contented
With What The Lord Daily Provides For Us 
Since Our Provider 
Is 
Our Maker ... The Creator! 

Our Provider Is Also Our Hope, Help, And Salvation
Redeemer
Judge, Lord, God
And 
Forever Faithful Friend ... The Kind King: 
Rest Where The Lord Our Shepherd Gently Leads! 


To Be Contented In Christ
Is
To Have Perfect Peace!
