Proverbs 15:13 (NKJV) A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance, But by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
Philippians 4:11 (NKJV) Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content.
1 Timothy 6:6 (NKJV) Now godliness with contentment is great gain.
Hebrews 13:5 (NKJV) Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."
Contentment is realizing that God has already given me everything I need for my present happiness. Bill Gothard (Draper's Book of Quotations for the Christian World)
