Listen "49. Contentment with Amy + Mekina"
Episode Synopsis
This month on SPARK the Podcast, Amy and Mekina chat all about finding true contentment in God, not in things. Amy shares about the contentment challenge she has been on (through Nancy Ray) a challenge where she committed to give up all unnecessary shopping for three months from January - April. Amy explains what God has been showing her through this challenge, and how true contentment can be found in the simple everyday experiences, and in relationship with Him.
When we have God in our lives, we have been given such a gift, such a blessing! We have the opportunity to live a life that is focused on the things that bring true contentment, like the freedom to live without worry about the future, knowing that on this side of Heaven that we will not live a life without pain, sickness, and heartache, but knowing that our life is saved through the precious blood of Jesus Christ. We have a God that loves us and is for us and not against us. We have a God that wants to be in relationship with us, who loves us so much that He gave His son so that we can have life through Him. I can not imagine a greater gift than that.
Now there is great gain in godliness with contentment, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. -1 Timothy 6:6-8
