James 5:13, "Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray." Reading #20: pg. 287, 13 October, Thomas Jacombe, Puritan Sermons 1659-1689, II:585-586.
Prayer is essential to learn contentment; without it, considerations and godliness are not enough. The best way to be content in every state is to pray in every state.
Prayer furthers contentment by giving vent to the mind under trouble and by obtaining grace and strength from God that enables contentment. A prayer for contentment: "Lord, I am beside myself, and have a discontented heart
that is ready upon every adverse situation to complain against you. This is my burden: I cannot get the victory over my passion, I cannot bring myself to a calm, submissive frame. Blessed God, help me through the power of your grace to have a contented mind in me,. In Jesus Name I Pray, AMEN!"
