I KNEW God; a lot of people think they know and have found God. My content and satisified heart did not come until I received Jesus the Christ into it. NOW I am content and satisfied even in today’s world
Thank you Lord for another day,even though i feel weak i know you are with me.I love you Lord Father of Jesus Christ my saviour

My mother-in-law was living with us. She was a devout Christian but dieing of cancer. I remember going into her room one day to see if she needed anything. She was lying there just staring up at the ceiling. I asked, “Mom are you angry at God?” She said “Oh No honey! I’m just thinking about what I am going to say to Him when I see Him.” She was content.
Yes I am content with god, he has his own plan for me, I am totally satisfied with that, do i still have earhly desires? Yes I do, I live in a duplex in Michigan, that I finally feel this place is home, I just ask a way to keep this place, with the econamy the way it is ,it leaves questions. Dont get me wrong it will work out , according to what God wants, but I do believe we need and want our earthly desires also.
I have been on a long journey seeking God. I just know that I always had him. He is in everything good thing that passes through my life. A loving husband, now gone, blessed with children, grandchildren and wonderful friends. He is there in every flower, every sunset, every sunrise, every smile from people who I just pass by each day. He is in all goodness, kindness, the forgiveness that comes freely from myself and is always there from God. Through my grief and pain, I have also found a rainbow through the goodness of people who have also gone through pain in their lives. The ability to lift one another up; and last but now least that last few moments before I rest in my bed and pray for all the people I love and pray that God was pleased with me that day and a wish that I would continue to finish out my life blessing others in small and large ways. Thank you God You are so awesome. Someday I will see you face to face and will be reunited with my beloved Bill.
If everyone would just realize that our LORD GOD gave his earthly son to us to free us..What a wonderful and such rewarding gift.. The light of JESUS is the most beautiful thing…I praise him ever day..How wonderful he is..
Think about it, try to live your life by GODS BOOK, ask for your forgiveness through JESUS CHRIST when you fall short, treat others the way you would want to be treated, walk with CHRIST because it will rub off on people I KNOW THIS~~~ and then think of the rewards we receive when we get called up to be with GOD!!! My goodness how AWESOME!!!!!!
May you all be blessed, and I want to thank people for there comments. I love people sharing!!!!!!!

I’ve been always seeking God – in fact at times i wish he was here on earth walking around us so we could relate to him more. I’ve been going through some medical challenges recently and have at times felt alone and scared about the future then i get a peace as if no matter what happens it will be okay. Thanks God for being with me I know i you are with me and will take care of me.. thanks foer being my friend and confidant.

I find myself finding it harder and harder to be content in today’s world. The only true time I find this is when I am spending time with God. And as busy as my world seems to be lately, that time is shorter than I’d like it to be. But I will try harder to be content no matter what anyway because I know life is but a vapor, and one day my Lord and Saviour is coming back to get me. (smiling)
I totally agree. Contentment does happen when we find Jesus. When God fills us w/ the Holy Ghost, then is when we find contentment.
We learn to be content in whatever state that we are in. Following the word of God also helps us to find contentment in our life. The word of God is the road map to contentment.
Bobbie Williamssays
Your message reminds me, in part, of the difference between joy and happiness. There are circumstances we encounter in life which may rob us of happiness for a short while, but with Jesus Christ living in us, nothing or no one can take away our joy. Even in my saddest hours there is joy in my heart because God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are true to the promise to dwell in me.
Marian Daly Millettsays
What an awesome topic! I am becoming more and more content with each passing day. What an wonderful God we all have!
we have four young girls in are family, 10, 14, 6, 18. they all think they should look like a movie star. the 14 year old an the eighteen year old are starving them selves half the time. they say there to fat. there beautifull girls.
LIFE IS NOT REALLY LIFE WORTH LIVING, WITHOUT JESUS!
VERY NICE AND INSPIRING!

i have traveled many roads, have befriended many souls. i allways thought i knew all the answers, then i realized that i have not been on this journey alone. all the people i have been given, all the blessings bestowed on me are the grace of god. he has watched me struggle, has watched me cry, laugh and recover from wrong choices i have made. i feel his love more every day. and thankfull that he is patient with me and forgiving. the lord is my shepard. thank you jesus for another miracle i have not realized yet.
Every word you spoke is so true. I am attending college as I wasn’t able to in my early 20s. I find that I am peace although chaos is going on all around me. I have Jesus and God to thank for that! Thank you for the reminder!

God is everlasting eternal ever new bliss. There is no true happiness in this delusion of a world. this is gods dream. She is waiting patiently for us to wake up from it and realize that the one thing we are always searching for is her eternal bliss, only found in her.

Wesley McPhersonsays
Thanks for the great message Elmer. The difference in the reality of this is sometimes hard, or maybe even confusing at times. But I have learned with the help of your messages, that thinking and living from my heart makes this reality of a content life much more easier by accepting GODS love and his plan for my life. Thanks again for the explanation.
hi thank you elmer i have been through so many hard times but since i have turned my life around to god its been better he is my shepard i shall not want and i havent i am on unemployment my bennfits ran out i called talked to someone who took me through some questions answers and i know have bennfits for 20 weeks i pray every day night before we eat thankfull for his blessings having faith can be hard sometimes not having is so hard for me i enjoy working but no jobs i find myself crying at times not knowing what to do this is great it brings me back to god closer to him when i hear things like this i remeber faith is so strong that with out him i wuldnt have anything so i am content just knowing god is with me and my family god is good just listn to elmer god bless us all thanks elmer back at you debbie

I have found true contentment can be an ongoing experience as long as I seek Gods will daily , and not let the distractions of this sin-filled world robb me of his goodness…I’m that one that JESUS left the other 90 and 9 for; And I love him because he first loved me…No greater love has or ever will be, than that of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ The True Living Son of GOD…I know Jesus lives because The word of God tells me so. I know He lives because He lives in my heart. What, know ye not that Jesus came to seek and to save those which are His? Yes, but yet the very ELECT could be blinded by the powers and principalities of this world, if it wasn’t for the power of the Holy Spirit that lives in the heart of all Gods children…SO in knowing this, I can conclude that my contentment lies in the very fact that GOD THE FATHER GOD THE SON GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT, Which were, are, and will be , is still in control and His mercy will strengthen us to endure…
—–I[Jesus] am the way the truth and the life. No man cometh unto the father but by me. John 14:6 KJV If you believe the holy bible is God’s word, then you know there is no other way to heaven than belief in Jesus Christ. Anyone who tries to enter any other way is a thief and a robber and will not gain entrance. It’s so easy and totally free. We serve Him because we love Him, not in order to gain entrance to heaven
this shit is ridiculous,yea god is so great um no.its okay for people to go rape childrend kill people and all the nasty things they do as long as they ask for forgivness and they get sent to heaven but if your a good person and you dont belive your fucked..great place to want to be with killlers rapists and molesters oh how great heaven must be!
I am finally content with God after years of trying to do it my way. He has brought me back from death three times. This last time, He slammed my clay pot into a million pieces and told me that He was taking me up a very steep, rocky cliff and I needed both my hands empty so that I could place them in His Hands in order to survive the climb. I was told that my focus would have to be on Him continually. He told me that I would damage my soul if I looked away. I was in the hospital when He started the work. It has been a very slow journey, but He has taught me many things about my life and His plans for it. He is continually with me. His presence lights my way. My life is happy and content today. I wouldn’t trade my experience for all the money in the world. He supplies my needs on a daily basis like manna from heaven in the desert. I have accepted His love for me and what He plans for me is just right. I still live on the edge of life and death with kidney failure, but I know He has it all in His powerful Hands.
Erin Moss, I will pray for you. Surely you know that repentance is the first step, then accepting the fact that you are a sinner. That covers everyone on this earth. We all are sinners. Yet, Jesus came to enable all of us to have eternal life. He is all through the Bible. Pick it up and read all through it of the sinners redeemed by Him. Even his own disciples were full of faults, yet changed by their belief in Him. God Bless you I pray for your unblief.

It took many years of searching and practicing the presence of God, of being traumatized and trusting God for right outcomes.
But, today, I am content. Thank you, Father.
