Christians struggle with contentment. I struggle with contentment. I’m ambitious, driven, and competitive by nature, so I struggle to take time off or slow down, and am always looking for something better. When I miss a goal, I mope; when I start a project, I’m already looking on to the next thing that I want to do. I hate to get stuck in a rut. These tendencies have led me to think about contentment, and being satisfied in Christ alone.
