Contentment is not about geography. It’s about your heart. You can serve God in Babylon just as well as you can in Jerusalem. It’s a hard lesson, but it is also good news if we will receive it from the Lord. Let God define your life, not your circumstances.
Text: Jeremiah 29:4-6To be credible means that you are believable. To be authentic means that you are genuine and real, not a fake or phony.
