Content for his passage, not for his portion

A little in the world will content a Christian for his passage, but all the world, and ten thousand times more, will not content a Christian for his portion. A carnal heart will be content with these things of the world for his portion; and that is the difference between a carnal heart and a gracious heart.
- Jeremiah Burroughs, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, p43
