1 Timothy 6:5-7 But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. |
Keep your lives free from the love of money
and be content with what you have,
because God has said,
“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.
I have learned the secret of being content
in any and every situation,
whether well fed or hungry,
whether living in plenty or in want.
Be Joyful always, Pray continually
giving THANKS in all circumstances for this
is GODS will for you in Christ Jesus
1Thes 5:16
I pray we will all be
content with where we are at this moment.
With what we have and stop this visious cycle of
I WANT...
I NEED...
I DESERVE....
Take delight in the LORD,
and he will give you
and he will give you
the desires of your heart
Psalms 37:4
What a great post and some great Scriptures to go with today's topic. I struggle with contentment sometimes. Although, right now, in a realy practical way , I'm just asking God to help me be content with what I have right now. I really do have quite a bit... :) :) I love those Scriptures :) :) :) Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)
