The Art of Divine Contentment by Thomas Watson ($0.99 Book, Digital Download)

• "Consider the excellency of it. Contentment is a flower that doth not grow in every garden; it teacheth a man how in the midst of want to abound. You would think it were excellent if I could prescribe a receipt or antidote against poverty: but behold here is that which is more excellent, for a man to want, and yet have enough, this alone contentment of spirit doth bring. Contentation is a remedy against all our trouble, an alleviation to all our burdens, it is the cure of care. Contentation, though it be not properly a grace (it is rather a disposition of mind,) yet in it there is a happy temperature and mixture of all the graces: it is a most precious compound, which is made up of faith, patience, meekness, humility, &c. which are the ingredients put into it." - Thomas Watson, The Art of Divine Contentment (emphases added)

• "Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." - Philippians 4:11-13, KJV

• "Watson's works are all marked by profound spirituality, terse style, impressive remarks, and practical illustrations. This book, first printed in 1653 is no exception. Based on Philippians 4:11, "I have learned, in whatever state I am therewith to be content," Watson writes, "For my part, I know not any ornament in religion that doth more bespangle a Christian, or glitter in the eye of God and man, than this or contentment. If there is a blessed life before we come to heaven, it is the contented life." Godly contentment is a theme missing from many pulpits today. A serious reading of this treatise would do much to fill this void." - Book Summary from Solid Ground Christian Books.
