Cultivate Contentment ...

Scripture: Philippians 4:10-20 and 1 Timothy 6:6-12

In Paul's first letter to Timothy he discussed Godliness and Contentment as great gain. By Godliness he meant leading a life that honored God and keeping His commandments. By Contentment he meant being satisfied with what God provides for us and not giving in to the temptation of greed. Contentment is an affirmation of our faith in God's ability and desire to provide for us.
