 How to Make Money Without Sorrow


Want money? Then learn how to be content. When you learn how to be content, The Lord will show you where the opportunities are to make money. 

Do you look at fancy cars and opulent houses? You're not content.

Do you dream about what it would be like to live like the rich and famous? You're not content. 

Do you think about how great it would be to get that one really nice thing you've always wanted? You're not content

Contentment is satisfaction with what you have right now, completely lacking in desire for anything you don't currently possess outside of your basic necessities.  


You see the car you always wanted and you think, "I don't need that, I don't even really want that, actually getting that thing sounds like it would become a terrible burden". 

Your friend gets a house just like the house you always wanted; you're genuinely happy for them.

You considered making an investment, but ended up not. That investment ended up increasing dramatically in value; you don't care, they'll be another one. 


Contentment starts with humility and progresses into submission to God. When He says to go buy the Porsche, that's when you go buy it. When He says to buy that 10M house on the water, you go buy it, when He says to give millions away, you do it. When you submit your lifestyle expansion decisions to Him, no sorrow comes with those decisions. 


Peace
