We just think there's something 45 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 6: more and we're looking for it. Maybe you're struggling to 46 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 6: get that promotion, you're working hard at work. Man, you've 47 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 6: got your eye on that promotion. Oh, you're just going 48 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 6: for it. You're getting a little out of balance. You 49 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 6: just don't feel satisfied even though you're headed in a 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 6: right direction. Or maybe you're at home and you've got 51 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 6: children and they're in diapers, and you're thinking, I'm exhausted, huh, 52 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 6: I need something else, I need something, and you begin 53 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 6: looking for it. You know, a lot of times we 54 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 6: can look for things to fill our spaces. 55 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 4: In all the wrong places. You know. 56 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 6: Sometimes we think we need something, so we go after it, 57 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 6: but can't fill that space that longing to make us content. 58 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 6: You know, the only thing that can fill that space 59 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 6: is Jesus. It's God inside of us. But we're so 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 6: used to. 61 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: Going so fast that we forget what. 62 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 6: The source of our strength is, the source of our 63 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 6: meaning and our purpose. Because sometimes we try to be 64 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 6: the source of our meaning and our purpose. 65 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 4: You know. 66 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 6: Sometimes we can look to food to fill those spaces. 67 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 4: Some people look to alcohol because it numbs them. Just 68 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 4: let me have a break here. You know. 69 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 6: Sometimes we are looking for any distraction to cause us 70 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 6: to forget what's going on on the inside of us. 71 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 6: You know, it's interesting because social media can be a 72 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 6: great distraction. You can forget all your problems and check 73 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 6: out someone else's life. You can almost live vicariously through 74 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 6: them as you're flipping through the pages. 75 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 4: But you know what's interesting about that. 76 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 6: It's fun unless you're there for the wrong reasons, unless 77 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 6: you're trying to escape your life to find someone else's life, 78 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 6: to find meaning and purpose. Because once that's over, you 79 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 6: usually leave more discontent than you can. You usually leave 80 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 6: more sad than you can. I've experienced it. I've been 81 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 6: looking at all these other people's great life and I think, man, 82 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 6: I'm missing out. I'm comparing their best life with my 83 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 6: worst life. I'm contemparing a moment. 84 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: In time with all my life. 85 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 6: You see, don't run after something else looking for something 86 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 6: to fill this space. 87 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 4: Only Jesus can fill it. 88 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 6: It doesn't matter if you're well off, if you're successful, 89 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 6: You've got to find contentment. Because sometimes we think, if 90 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 6: this will happen, I'll be happy when I get that promotion, 91 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 6: when I get that new house, when I get a 92 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 6: little more money, I'll be happy. I'll be successful. But 93 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 6: can I tell you that lie of success is always moving. 94 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 6: It's always moving if you're chasing success, you're never gonna 95 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 6: catch up with it because it's always moving. 96 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,840 Speaker 4: You can never have enough. 97 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 6: Don't feel like, well, you know what I'm gonna suffer 98 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 6: for Jesus, I'm stripping it all off. I'm giving it 99 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 6: all away, because that's not gonna fulfill you either. Because 100 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 6: if you're trying to do something for Jesus out of show, 101 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 6: it's not. 102 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 4: Gonna work for you. 103 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 6: It's not gonna work for you if you're saying, Jesus, 104 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 6: look what I've done for you today, because see, it's 105 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 6: not what you're doing for Jesus. 106 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 4: It's what Jesus has done for you. Is what Jesus 107 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 4: is done for you. 108 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 6: See, the only thing that will fill these faces is 109 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 6: Jesus Christ. And when you're feeling anxious, restless, discontent, can 110 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 6: I encourage us all myself as well? With the words 111 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 6: from the apostle Paul found in Philippians four, he said this, 112 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 6: He said, he was writing. This is interesting because he 113 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 6: was writing to the church at Philippi. He wasn't writing 114 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 6: to unbelievers. He wasn't writing he was writing. 115 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 4: To the church. And this is what he was saying. 116 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 4: He says, I know what it is to be in need, 117 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: he said, And I know what. 118 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 6: It is to have plenty. I've been without and I've 119 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 6: had more than enough. And he says, I have learned 120 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 6: the secret of being content in every situation. 121 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 4: I've learned the secret. Don't you know? They were leaning in. 122 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 4: We all want to know the secret. 123 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 6: Secret to weight loss, secret to a happy life, secret 124 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 6: to a marriage. He said, I've learned the secret to 125 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 6: be content in every situation. Can I tell you contentment 126 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 6: will fix your situation. Contentment is a powerful state of being. 127 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 6: And Paul said, I have learned this and now I'm going. 128 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 4: To share it with you. He says, this is the secret. 129 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 6: He said, I can do all things through Christ, who 130 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 6: strengthens me. 131 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 4: I can do it all. I can make it my way. 132 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 6: Through it all with Christ strengthen in me. You see 133 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 6: his profound secret. And what he had learned was the 134 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 6: fact that it was Christ in him, the hope of glory. 135 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 6: It was I can through him. I can through him. 136 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 6: I can't apart from him. I'm a mess. Apart from him. 137 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 6: I'm in prison apart from him, But with him, the 138 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 6: prison is not getting in me because I'm full of Christ. 139 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 6: Jesus I may be in a tough spot. I may 140 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 6: be in a place I don't like, but you know. 141 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 4: What, I'm useful to the Kingdom of God. 142 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 6: I love Paul's writings because he was always saying, listen, 143 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 6: you know. 144 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 4: Today is to be with Christ. You know, if I go, 145 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:26,679 Speaker 4: that's great. 146 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 6: But if I'm staying, I'm not letting the circumstances get 147 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 6: in me. If I'm here on earth, I'm gonna be 148 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 6: in Christ Jesus. 149 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 4: I'm gonna walk with. 150 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 6: Purpose and destiny, knowing that He doesn't waste. 151 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 4: One thing in my life. 152 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 6: I am so grateful that Paul didn't give up in prison. 153 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 6: I'm so grateful he didn't let prison take him captive. 154 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 6: But he said, I'm in prison, but God is here 155 00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 6: with me, and as long as he's with me, I 156 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 6: can do all things. I can bear all things, and 157 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 6: I'm useful to the Kingdom of God. 158 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 4: So achared with us the secret. 159 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 6: Of contentment, which is powerful in our life. 160 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 4: Now. 161 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 6: I don't know about you, but sometimes it takes me 162 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 6: a little while to learn a lesson. I don't know 163 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 6: how long it took Paul to learn this lesson, because 164 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 6: he said he had to learn it. 165 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 4: He said I had to learn this. 166 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 6: And now that I have learned it and experienced it, 167 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 6: guess what, I'm sharing it with you. He's saying this, though, 168 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 6: I can share the secret with you, but you've got 169 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 6: to dig into the mystery of it. You've got to 170 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 6: go after it yourself. You've got to experience it yourself. 171 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 6: It's called maturity, he said. I've actually come to that 172 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 6: place that I've learned something. It's okay if it takes 173 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 6: us a long time to learn. I can have somebody 174 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 6: tell me something. I'm not kidding. They can tell me. 175 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 6: I can hear something over and over again, and then 176 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 6: one day it makes sense. One day I actually get it. 177 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 6: Paul is saying, I'm giving you the secret. 178 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 4: Go get it, Go get it. 179 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 6: You see, when you're content, you're powerful to shed a 180 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 6: little more light on this contentment. Paul tells us this 181 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 6: in Philippians. For he says, don't be anxious for anything. 182 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 6: What is the opposite of content? Anxious, discontent, restless. Don't 183 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 6: be those things. 184 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 4: Here's the remedy, he says. 185 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 6: Don't be anxious for anything, but by prayer and petition, 186 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 6: with thanksgiving in your heart, let your request be made 187 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 6: known to God. And the peace of God. The promise 188 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 6: of peace will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. 189 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 6: He said, I'm in this prison, but can I tell 190 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 6: you what's between me and these bars is peace. I'm 191 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 6: gonna embrace the place that I'm in and I'm going 192 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 6: to move forward. Now he said this, He says, I 193 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 6: give thanks in all things. He didn't say I get 194 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 6: thanks for all things. I really don't believe he was 195 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 6: happy he was in prison. Yay, I'm in prison. 196 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: It is great. 197 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: Been shipwrecked, be No, these things happened to him. He 198 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 6: was in those circumstances. He didn't give thanks to God 199 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 6: for those circumstances. He gave thanks to God that God 200 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 6: was with him in those circumstances. But there was an outcome. 201 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 6: There was a promise I can through him. You see, 202 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 6: sometimes we try to rush through those bad parts of life, 203 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 6: those tough parts, those uncomfortable parts. 204 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 4: And you know what, We're only human. 205 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 6: It's not natural to want to be in pain and party. 206 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 6: But you know what Paul was trying to share with us. 207 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 6: Your contentment does not have to come from your circumstance. 208 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 4: How many of you women. 209 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 6: In here, you're a mother and you remember those diaper days, 210 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 6: and I'm just about exhausting to change another. 211 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 4: One of those diapers. 212 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 6: But then when you got past it, kids got into school, 213 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 6: maybe they're married, you realize those are precious days. 214 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 4: They weren't as exhausting as they thought they were. 215 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 6: I wouldn't mind having one more diaper to change. Maybe 216 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 6: your sophomore in college, you can't wait to get to graduate. 217 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 6: While I am on my way to graduation. You graduate, 218 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 6: then you realize it was difficult. It really wasn't that bad. 219 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 4: Kind of like it better than the real world. You see. 220 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 6: Contentment is not complacency. I just want to say that 221 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 6: contentment's not complacency. You should be ambitious. You should want 222 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 6: to succeed. You should want to have purpose for Christ Jesus, 223 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 6: you should want to move forward. God put that in us. 224 00:12:54,440 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 6: He sold us have dominion. Some do your situations. It's 225 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 6: not complacency. But the problem is if you can't enjoy 226 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,920 Speaker 6: where you are right now and what you have right now, 227 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 6: you're being cheated. 228 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 4: That's not the best for your life. 229 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 6: Don't be missing the now to get to the later. 230 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 6: Don't miss the now to get to the later. 231 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 4: You know, even when it's tough. This is what Paul said. 232 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,959 Speaker 6: It's tough in here, but I've developed, I've matured, and 233 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 6: I've learned some things. 234 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 4: No matter what you're going through right now, there's a 235 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 4: lesson in it. There's something to take from it. Listen. 236 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 4: If you go through it and you don't learn through it, 237 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 4: there's a problem. 238 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 6: God wants to reveal his mysteries, his grace, his purpose 239 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 6: in us. 240 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,440 Speaker 4: That is not a great subject. Is it not fun 241 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 4: to go through? 242 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 6: But if you can learn through it, if you can 243 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 6: come out the other side stronger, that old song of 244 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 6: it is kill me. 245 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 4: I made stronger Otho.
