Hebrews 13:5 ESV
Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."
Be content with all you have huh? Well that throws a monkey wrench in trying to gain more - right? Wrong! Contentment is an attitude of the heart that speaks out of gratefulness. It doesn't mean to be satisfied with less, but it does mean to be thankful for what you have. Paul knew how to live in plenty and how to be content in want. I want to be like Paul! Contentment is an inner peace that God is in control of things - like your life. It is a knowing that He who loves you so will deliver that love in whatever form it needs to be delivered. The question is - do we trust Him to bring us provision, whatever that may be? Will we rest in Him? Repeat the scripture with your lips- "I will never leave you or forsake you".
