Discontent is a misallocation of effort and desire. We are aiming toward making wise decisions from a foundation of contentment. How do we build and maintain contentment in our lives?
Contentment is being satisfied that all my needs are met and now I can go and do the things that God has put into me to do. Discontent is a misallocation of effort and desire. Contentment and discontent are a heart issue that affect our efforts and desires. When we are discontent we are focused on something other than what is God is trying to do in us and through us.
Contentment is being satisfied within what God has provided. For the record, contentment is not laziness, apathy, indifference, or despondent. We have lots of direct scripture asking us to cry out when we are in trouble and many examples of God coming to the rescue of those in need. It is clear, we are to make our requests known to God and He is happy to respond to us.
