Become Whole, Unbreakable, and Unstoppable

What is it like to have contentment of the heart regardless of life circumstances? Does what you believe about yourself make any difference? Paul is one of the people most admired in the Bible. He was a man of passion, no matter where he was. Once he was converted, his purpose in life changed and became all about Christ and spreading the gospel. He never wasted time. When he wasn’t in prison, he went from place to place, spreading the good news. While in prison, he worshipped and wrote his letters that we read to this date. He was free even in his chains. What made such a difference?

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength (Phil. 4:11–13 NIV).

If I could sum up this book in few words, it would be from the above quotation. None of us is able to control life circumstances, but everyone has the ability to control personal reaction. Getting to a place of wholeness/contentment isn’t brought about by having wealth, great education, a prestigious career, a loving spouse, or any other external entity. It is simply by knowing who you are and why you are here. Your title, stature, or association, among other things, does not determine who you are. Instead it is that person who remains inside you when all external things are removed from your life. The next thing you want to know is your purpose on earth, which brings about focus. Paul’s focus was worship and spreading the gospel. Knowing his purpose kept him from distractions.
