Have you ever been around an ungrateful person? It's not fun to hang out with them because well, their attitude reeks. In today's message, Pastor Ricky encourages us to be content with our station in life. God wants us to have joyful, grateful hearts that reflect Him. The way to be content is to find our strength and purpose in Jesus Christ. When the Lord is at the center of our lives, we can be content in all circumstances for we know that He is our provider and that He deeply cares about us.
We live in a time and place of great blessing. Americans enjoy unprecedented prosperity. We have cell phones, food of all kinds from all over the world, machines to wash our clothes, cars to get us to and from wherever we want to go, and houses to keep us safe, dry, and warm. Despite these many blessings, discontentment can ruin our peace. In today's message, Pastor Ricky teaches us that the secret to contentment is gratefulness. We must remain thankful for all the Lord provides in order to avoid selfish grumbling.

Today on Bold Steps ⦠Pastor Mark Jobe shares an empowering lesson from the book of Philippians. Last week we continued our series about Joy ⦠and began a message about The Secret to Contentment. As we discussed, contentment isnāt just a feeling, but rather an attitude that we can learn to take on. We pick up our lesson Philippians chapter 4, looking at verse 12 ⦠with todayās message titled, The Secret to Contentment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What does it take to find true contentment? Find out today on Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe. Maybe you canāt relate, but sometimes Iāve found myself thinking āGosh, if I could just get that new house, or that bigger paycheck, or this one problem in my life just went away ⦠then I would finally be content.ā But in reality, that isnāt how it works. The Bible says being content actually has nothing to do with our circumstances ... Mark is going to help us see that just like joy, contentment is a choice ⦠and itās a choice we can learn to make.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Episode 43: Cultivating Contentment Part 2 In this episode, I get to share my heart about how to grow in contentment in different areas of our lives. When you are content, you are fully surrendered and can live in peace. We are surrendered when we love the Lord with all of our hearts, soul, and mind. God has taken you this far and has continued to carry you through this season. Deuteronomy 5:6 LoveĀ theĀ LordĀ your God with all your heartĀ and with all your soul and with all your strength Before you can be content you go through a stretching season of discomfort and discontent. Contentment begins when we get to the end our ourselves. When God is preparing our hearts we go through resistance training with our faith. God desires us to put our faith in Him and to rely on Him. The enemy will try to get you to do things on your own so that you don't have to rely on God. The first step to contentment is being a good steward of the oil that is in your hand now, the gifts that God has blessed you. Cultivating contentment requires you to feed your faith and to exercise putting your faith in our creator and our heavenly Father who has designed you and knows the plans for you. Every vision and calling requires a sacrifice. Are you willing to sacrifice your own agenda and ideas and surrender it to God and trust Him to lead you and guide you? Temporary contentment is when we put our faith into things and not God. Discontentment will come when we sacrifice our intimacy with God for other idols that we think will sustain us. Our true contentment is when we place our faith fully in God. Feel free to share what you got out of this week's episode and email us @ sheenvisions2@gmail.com.
