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. 1 Timothy 6: 6-10
(NIV)

Contentment is not having enough; it is peace in what we have.

“I am not saying this because I am in need, 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.” Philippians 4: 11-13 (NIV) Apostle Paul

What is the upward call of God in Christ Jesus in your life? Pray
that God will reveal it clearly to you, that then you will forget what lies behind,
leave the past forever and run toward your Heavenly Father, who runs to meet
you with outstretched arms. Dedicate yourself now to His service forever.
