All of creation was designed and destined with utmost dignity to glorify the Creator.

Because Jesus is the Word made flesh, and because He gives us His word as a gift of His grace, we are able to choose the path of blessing and flourishing. Blessing comes by delighting in and meditating on the Word of God.

How do we see Christ in the Psalms? Is the bible really all about Jesus? What resources are available to help us see Christ in scripture's songs?

Jesus Christ is the wisdom and power of God unto salvation, for all who believe.

In this passage, we will see how the church is called to:

I. Contentment in God's Provision (4:10-13)
II. Contentment in Giving (4:14-20)
III. Contentment in Relationships (4:21-23)

Only by trusting in Christ's finished work will our hearts be flooded with an abiding peace that empowers us to live as those anxious for the Kingdom and the King.

True joy is found in being watchful, and seeking to deal with the things of this world in ways that reveal Christ as our greatest treasure.

When Christ is sought, a genuine concern for others is wrought.

It is only through the gospel that we can find true joy in the pursuit of holiness.

We don't "find" joy, it finds us! The way we encounter and display true humility is by staying near the cross. True humility produces in us a deep honor for Christ, which leads to lasting Joy.
