Schaeffer: contentment as an index to spirituality

...I am to love God enough to be contented...

If the contentment goes and the giving of thanks goes, we are not loving God as we should, and proper desire has become coveting against God.  This inward area is the first place of loss of true spirituality.  The outward is always just a result of it.
