Learning To Be Content

Philippians 4:11-13 reads, ". . . for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 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. I can do everything through Him who gives me strength."

Yes, contentment is "learned!" It begins with a relationship with Jesus Christ. It develops when you learn to rely on His strength and provision in "any and every situation". Praise God for this awesome reality!

Prayer: "Lord, teach me to rely on Your strength and provision in "any and every situation". In Jesus' Name, Amen."

Blessings!
