The secret of contentment

Contentment is found in the search for godliness. Knowing the right path, you struggle on, resisting the desire to wade into jealousy, anguish, bitterness or fear. You pause to pray, again and again. You learn truths which are solid enough almost to hold. And one day, after this slow imbibing of truth or perhaps on the heels of painful, courageous action, you look around and see that you are content, more or less.
