Description
One of the great old Puritan classics, and one of the most readable, by an author skilled in the art of illustration as few men in history have been. Few lessons are more difficult or necessary for the Christian than learning contentment of heart, in the abounding and abasing changes of life. And few are more qualified to provide sound biblical counsel in this area than Thomas Watson.
One of his most popular writings of all time, this explains what real contentment is and how to obtain it. While laying the axe to the root of such sins as envy, covetousness, murmuring and discontent, he provides helpful instructions for cultivating a disposition of humility and trust in our God's providence in our lives.
The foremost work on contentment written in history, and based on Philippians 4:11: "I have learned, in whatever state I am therewith to be content". Thomas Watson considers the great dishonor done to almighty God by the sin of discontentment. The doctrine of Christian contentment is clearly illustrated and profitably applied. The special cases where, through changes in providences, discontentment most commonly arises are examined and preservatives are applied to the soul.
