why are we so content with discontentment?

why are we so content with discontentment?

We are so used to responding to difficulties with anxiety or discontentment that we consider these normal reactions to life’s circumstances. That just points out how subtle and acceptable these sins have become to us.

Jerry Bridges

Ouch!

How can we possibly consider this without owning our failures, confessing our sins, and asking God to change us from the inside out?

Ask God to change your heart. Remove distrust. Fill it with faith. Ask Him to change your mind. Remove personal desire for control. Fill it with delight in God’s sovereignty.
