Learning to be content: Spurgeon and Paul
"These words show us that contentment is not a natural propensity of man. "Ill weeds grow apace." Covetousness, discontent, and murmuring are as natural to man as thorns are to the soil.

This miraculous faith and love produces joy that is full of the goodness and greatness - the very glory - of God. This joy is so… Continue reading Faith and Love
