Contentment’s Source

“Since God is contented with Himself alone, if you have Him, you may be contented with Him alone, and it may be, that is the reason why your outward comforts are taken from you, that God may be all in all to you. It may be that while you had these things they shared with God in your affection, a great part of the stream of your affection ran that way: God would have the full stream run to Him now.”  ~ Jeremiah Burroughs 1599-1646

How about you, what picture best conveys contentment for you?

I think of things that appear to never change like a rock, or a planet, or a galaxy.

Contentment – satisfaction of mind without disquiet.

But godliness actually is a means of great gain when accompanied by contentment. 1 Timothy 6:6
