Dissatisfaction and Discontentment with Life (“Babel 2.0” series, Week 3 of 5)

When we hear that someone is “content” we often attribute it to “laziness” — they don’t put in the work to go above and beyond, they don’t try to make things any better; everything is fine just as it is. Contentment, however, is a state of mind, and the longer things stay the same, the more dissatisfied with them we become.

Truly appreciating something a powerful mindset: choosing to see blessings in what we have instead of seeing frustrations in what we lack changes our perspective. Most importantly, that’s how God wants us to see the world and our relationship with Him. Today, Pastor Greg explores the ways we are tempted to be discontent, and how to appreciate magnitudes of grace instead.

Scriptures today: Proverbs 13:4 // Colossians 3:23 // Proverbs 10:4 // 1 Timothy 6:6-11 // Philippians 4:11-13 // Revelation 13:11, 18
