We have believed the lie that what we do, what we have, or who we are with will bring contentment.
The only way we will ever experience true contentment is through a relationship with Jesus that affects our life everyday.
Because of Bethlehem we can be content. Jn 10:10; Phil 4:10-13
1. Contentment is not based on our circumstances. Phil 4:11-12
2. Contentment is a learned behavior. Phil 4:11-12 "I've learned to be content." Discontentment starts at a very young age, it's a part of our sin nature. 1 Tim 6:6-10 "godliness with contentment is great gain..." 1 Tim 4:7-8 "train yourself to be godly..." Make a choice to take time everyday to train yourself in godliness, read the Word of God, pray.
3. Contentment is found only in Jesus. Phil 4:13 "I can do all this through him who gives me strength."
