Contentment \Con*tent"ment\ (k[o^]n*t[e^]nt"ment), n. [Cf. F.
contentement. See {Content}, v. t.]
1. The state of being contented or satisfied; content.
[1913 Webster]

vi. 6.

[1913 Webster]

At Paris the prince spent one whole day to give his
mind some contentment in viewing of a famous city.
--Sir H.
Wotton.
[1913 Webster]

Contentment
a state of mind in which one's desires are confined to his lot
whatever it may be (1 Tim. 6:6; 2 Cor. 9:8). It is opposed to
envy (James 3:16), avarice (Heb. 13:5), ambition (Prov. 13:10),
anxiety (Matt. 6:25, 34), and repining (1 Cor. 10:10). It arises
from the inward disposition, and is the offspring of humility,
and of an intelligent consideration of the rectitude and
benignity of divine providence (Ps. 96:1, 2; 145), the greatness
of the divine promises (2 Pet. 1:4), and our own unworthiness
(Gen. 32:10); as well as from the view the gospel opens up to us
of rest and peace hereafter (Rom. 5:2).
