Finding Contentment

October 23, 2022 Preacher: Bob Walderman Series: Elders and Guest Preachers

Topic: Contentment Scripture: Philippians 4:10-13

In a world that fuels our discontent, where can the believer find contentment. In considering the Apostle Paul we discover his "secret" to contentment is not based on external circumstances but is found in a personal relaionship with Christ Jesus.

Three points to achieve this by putting your faith in Jesus.

1) Have an attitude of Gratitude.  Focus on what you do have and on all good things.

2) Put your faith in Jesus - Know that we are all sinners and have sinned more against God than any man has sinned against us.  Have Gratitude that Jesus has forgiven your sins and know that you can do all things through Jesus Christ.  We can then forgive those who have sinned against us and be blessed that through our belief we will be saved. 

3) Have Hope for the Future - Focus on Jesus and remember Gods promises of what the future and eternal life will be like.
