The main message from yesterday was that contentment is found as we pursue and cooperate with God and His will. Contentment grows out of our trust that God will provide all that we need in order to do what He invites us to be a part of in building His kingdom.
The path to contentment is not trying to convince myself to BE content. Contentment flows out of and is a result of being in God's will outside of what I have or don't have and regardless of what my circumstances are. Contentment is not found in my comfort. Contentment is found in living a bigger life, not for ourselves, but for God.
Henry Blackaby:
"If you are walking daily with the Lord, you will not have to find God’s will – you will already be in it. If you are walking with Him in obedience day by day, you will always be in the will of God. The Holy Spirit’s role is to guide you step by step to do God’s will."
Be encouraged in the midst of seeking God this week.
