Contentment

Struggled all last week with mumuring. I knew it and God knew it. Came across this quote on another blog and was smacked in the face. Which is ok. I needed it.

"Murmuring is no better than mutiny in the heart; it is a rising up against God. When the sea is rough and unquiet, it casts forth nothing but foam: when the heart is discontented, it casts forth the foam of anger, impatience, and sometimes little better than blasphemy. Murmuring is nothing else but the scum which boils off from a discontented heart."

Thomas Watson, The Art of Divine Contentment
