being content is about acceptance....no matter my condition -—job or no job, house or no house, spouse or no spouse, health or no health-— in all of these states God is at work in my life and will help me. Does that help always look like what I want (or demand)? Of course not. What happens is that I learn to have gratitude for that which I do have . I learn what I need to do to change my circumstance ( and sometimes there is nothing that I can do but change my attitude). To be more focused on where I may useful to another than being focused on getting what I want. Being content is knowing deep in my heart and soul that no matter what happens I am right where I am supposed to be for the here and now.
