“Have we noted those that are discontent demanding change once they get it are still discontented? Discontentment is the gift that keeps on giving greater discontentment!”
1Tim.6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain. 6:7 For we brought nothing into the world, and we certainly can't carry anything out. 6:8 But having food and clothing, we will be content with that. 6:9 But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction. 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 6:11 But you, man of God, flee these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.
Heb.13:5 Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."{Deuteronomy 31:6}
Matt.6:33 But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. 6:34 Therefore don't be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.
Rom.8:28 We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
Facts: First, there is benign envy, and then there is malignant envy. The malignant forms of envy are typically deadly. Luckily, they are rare, nonconscious, out of mindful awareness, but cause a lot of trouble. This nonconscious envy is the underlying inclination to see everything as "all-black or all-white." It creates a divided self. A divided, incoherent sense of self shows up as anxiety, stress, unhappiness, stagnation, malcontent, anger, and poor performance. The end product is "burnout." Error, accidents, and disaster follow. The "burnout" syndrome results both at work and in everyday life. Happiness is hard to feel. (By Frank John Ninivaggi, M.D., F.A.P.A.,)
