Nine Requisites for Contented Living: Quote of the Week

January 12, 2013 By Jean Wise



Nine requisites for contented living: 

– Health enough to make work a pleasure. 


– Wealth enough to support your needs. 


– Strength to battle with difficulties and overcome them. 


– Grace enough to confess your sins and forsake them. 


– Patience enough to toil until some good is accomplished. 


– Charity enough to see some good in your neighbor.


– Love enough to move you to be useful and helpful to others. 

– Faith enough to make real the things of God. 


– Hope enough to remove all anxious fears concerning the future.

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
