Wouldn't it be strange to hear on the news that a dog jumped off a bridge in an attempt to commit suicide because its owner "broke its heart"? Man is a complex being. He is distinct from other animals because he was created in the image of God. The capacity to think sets him apart. Only man has the capacity to think to the extent that it takes away his sleep and peace of mind or to forgive and get on with life." In this book, you will get to know how man functions, what thoughts and imaginations can do, how to handle thoughts, imaginations and fantasies and how to change your thoughts by aligning them to the Word of God. You can be like God in how you think.

The purpose of this book is to present biblical perspective on contentment by helping the reader maximize all the experiences he/she will have in life as he/she relies on the heavenly Father to both work for his/her good and by so doing fulfill His purpose. The subject of contentment will be examined in light of the contradictions in life; the positive and negative, the good, the bad and the ugly even as we hold firmly to the conviction that the Lord Jesus Christ came to give us life more abundant. There is a secret to contentment. This is a journey to discover that secret.
