Being in a state of satisfaction in whatever we have or don't have and whatever situations allows us to gain peace of mind. Being content with God gives us assurance to experience joy even in a state of lack. Having a simple life let us appreciate the things that really matter most. When we celebrate what we have through contentment we learn to depend on God's providence and not become constant worriers and whiners of the things that we are missing over the things that God has blessed us and are of great value.
