We are almost halfway through this year in our series on Contentment. I have personally learned much as I have prayed, studied, and written on this subject. Through these six months we have continued to see the extreme between oppression and contentment. We are writing articles for the blog and working on one of our new books, Thriving Under Oppression. We are seeing how contentment is the work in and through us by the Spirit of the Lord even in the middle of oppression. Please pray for this project, a much needed work of grace for God’s people, for His glory and kingdom in this year of our Lord.
Listed are articles we have posted. Following are titles of future posts. If we have not covered something of interest to you, or you have a suggestion or question for a post, let me know. We are still praying and waiting for the Lord’s leading for each one.
Thank you for sharing your walk of faith which includes scriptural references ! We can all benefit as we incorporate God’s Word and God’s way. Friday blessings!

What a wonderful series! I was wondering the other day why I seem to be so calm. I know peace as part of the fruit of the Spirit. But it came to me that I am content. And that is such a wonderful revelation!

Indeed; it is the work of the Spirit, of HIs love within, with the joy and the peace. Blessings for the week-end, Jim, and for your labor of love for the preaching of His Word.

Our Lord has also been teaching me about true contentment in Him. Over the last year or so, I have really began to feel the truth behind Psalm 16 by His grace!

Thank you Heather, and I praise the Lord that we all can share His contentment. Psalm 16 is one of my favorites, especially verse 16, which is the secret.

Mine, too. I’ve been meditating on that very verse for some months now!

I’ll be praying for you and your husband, and the project. 😊 ❤
I really look forward to your next post – I get anxious a lot and I know I shouldn’t be anxious about anything, because of, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6&7
Have a great Sunday! ♥
