I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. — Philippians 4:12

Contentment! How about you? Mmm, I’d enjoy a bit of that. Being satisfied with practically anything is difficult for me. My performance is below average. I’m not as heavy as I should be. In our last talk, I used a few offensive remarks. Even simpler is to acknowledge what we lack financially and then go for it. But before we can fully appreciate money, possessions, health, or anything else, we must first understand that satisfaction is not dependent on our circumstances but rather on our salvation.

Prayer

I ask for your assistance in discovering the gift of contentment since you, Almighty and Generous God, are the source of all good things. Bless me with whatever you see fit, because I know in my heart that no blessing compares to being your child and experiencing your love and intimate knowledge. In Jesus’ name I ask it. Amen.
