Resources on disappointment

[arapahoepark]

Any Puritan resources on the subject of handling disappointment? Presumably it touches a bit on contentment but, I am not certain they are the exact same.

“The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment” by Jeremiah Burroughs is a wonderful book. It covers all that you are asking about. My copy is thoroughly marked up.

The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment

<p>Practical and biblical ways to remedy the spiritual disease of a spirit of discontentment. Marked by sanity, clarity, aptness of illustration, and warmth of appeal to the heart. 232pp.</p>

Presumably it touches a bit on contentment but, I am not certain they are the exact same.

In what way would you say they are different?

Does the disappointment grieve the soul to the point it questions its salvation? If so, I recommend "The Doubting Believer" by Sedgwick.
