Stories of Jesus

Simon asked the Master: "Why are some persons so much more happy and contented than others? Is contentment a matter of religious experience?"

Much, very much, depends upon the willingness of man to be led and directed by the Father's spirit which lives within him. … Much of man's sorrow is born of the disappointment of his ambitions and the wounding of his pride. …Seek not, then, for false peace and transient joy but rather for the assurance of faith and the sureties of divine sonship which yield composure, contentment, and supreme joy in the spirit
