Godliness With Contentment

“ But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content. ” – 1 Timothy 6:6-8

Isn’t it funny how we can easily be deceived into believing that having more is always better? Or that constantly acquiring something new will bring true happiness? When in fact, the truth we find in Scripture tells a much different story. Beginning all the way back to Adam and Eve in the book of Genesis!

While writing to Timothy. The Apostle Paul not only shared a much needed warning of the sin of covetousness in the early Church, and for us today. He also shared the proper response we as followers of Christ should take. Which is godliness with contentment!

Friend, there is no greater achievement in this life, and no greater peace that can be received. Than having a relationship with a Perfect Heavenly Father who knows and provides for our every need!
