Are You Content?

Contentment is one of the most elusive qualities in our modern world. We are constantly encouraged to want more, achieve more, and acquire more. From the moment we wake up, advertisements and social media feeds present us with images of what a "better" life looks like, leaving us with a nagging feeling of dissatisfaction with our own. We tie our contentment to external factors, believing we will finally be at peace when we get the promotion, the bigger house, or the perfect relationship.   You can read today’s devotional and past reflections at followingtheleader.org.
