The best way to be content in every state is to pray in every state.</p><p>Prayer furthers contentment by giving vent to the mind under trouble and by obtaining grace and strength from God that enables contentment. A prayer for contentment:<strong> \"Lord, I am beside myself, and have a discontented heart </strong></p><p><strong>that is ready upon every adverse situation to complain against you. This is my burden: I cannot get the victory over my passion, I cannot bring myself to a calm, submissive frame. Blessed God, help me through the power of your grace to have a contented mind in me,.
