CONTENTMENT Philippians 4:11-13 NIV " I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. [12] 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. [13] I can do all this through him who gives me strength." We live in a society where the commerce encourages discontentment, you need this, your home is incomplete without this, everybody has one except you.We are encouraged to covet what others have, and coveting is sin.The Bible is clear we need to learn contentment, whether in the area of material goods,circumstances or even limitations that we may face physically or mentally.God will supply all of our needs, He will enable us to do things that we once thought impossible,because He is an All Powerful God.The only area in which we should never be totally contented is in the spiritual realm, we should always want to get closer to God, to grow more like Jesus, to grow spiritually.
