Contentment

But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs. But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.

I Timothy 6:6-11

And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:19

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."

Hebrews 13:5

At Thanksgiving, I am also reminded of what it really means to be content. It can be so easy to fall into the ways of this world, and forget the abundant blessings we have DAILY! I pray that I can show contentment daily, throughout the year.
