Contentment Surgery (Jas 5)
James, while addressing the issue of oppression by the rich, hints at a character quality we must develop for our lives–contentment.

Understanding the Trinity as the Bible presents it is vital to our lives, vital to our salvation, and very applicable to our lives.

Ephesians 5 is all about relationships. Paul gives important instructions for marriage relationships and that discussion continues into chapter 6 on family and work relationships as well.

Take some time today to read the passage and reflect on your own relationship. How might you further implement these instructions.…
