This is an extremely practical exposition of Philippians 4:11, I have learned, in whatever state I am therewith to be content, Watson spends the entire book on this one verse.

“Man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward;” therefore we all need to learn the same lesson as Paul.

In this volume we have a full exposition, by the Puritan, Thomas Watson, of the above verse of Scripture, originally preached during his ministry as rector of St Stephen’s, Wallbrook, London.
在这本书中我们有清教徒托马斯·华森对上述圣经经文的完整解经，最初是在他担任伦敦沃布鲁克圣司提反堂牧师期间讲道的。
“Although Thomas Watson issued several most valuable books,” said C. H. Spurgeon, “comparatively little is known of him — even the dates of his birth and death are unknown. His writings are his best memorial; perhaps he needed no other, and therefore providence forbade the superfluity.”
司布真说，”虽然托马斯·华森出版了几本最有价值的书，””关于他所知相对较少——甚至他出生和死亡的日期都不为人知。他的著作是他最好的纪念；也许他不需要其他的，因此护理禁止这种多余。”
Puritan preachers, having an eye to the practice of their hearers, built their heart-searching application of the truth upon sound biblical doctrine.
清教徒传道人，关注他们听众的实践，在健全的圣经教义上建立他们察验人心的真理应用。
This characteristic is evident in The Art of Divine Contentment; as is also the fact that Watson was the “master of a terse, vigorous style and of a beauty of expression. He could speak not only to win men’s understanding but also to secure a place for the truth in their memories.”
这个特征在《神圣知足的艺术》中是明显的；华森是”简洁、有力风格和优美表达的大师这一事实也是如此。他不仅能说话赢得人的理解，也能在他们的记忆中为真理确保一席之地。”
Thomas Watson graduated from Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he was known for being a hard student.
托马斯·华森毕业于剑桥大学以马内利学院，在那里他以勤奋的学生而闻名。
He was a man of considerable learning, a popular but judicious preacher, and eminent in the gift of prayer.
他是一个学识渊博的人，一个受欢迎但明智的传道人，在祷告的恩赐上卓越。
He is one of the most popular of all English Puritans and, certainly, one of the most readable.
他是所有英国清教徒中最受欢迎的之一，并且，确实，是最可读的之一。
Watson pastored at St. Stephen’s Walbrook in London.
华森在伦敦的沃布鲁克圣司提反堂牧会。
The building in which he pastored was destroyed by fire in 1666.

After being ejected in 1662, he continued ministering in London for many years.
