The Apostle Paul once said that he was content whether or not he had plenty or little. The key to Paul’s contentment was that he knew that God was his provider, and that he had defeated the spirit of greed. It is a good thing to want to do the best you can, and to work towards higher education and better salaries. However, at the end of the day, the righteous are content and grateful for what God has provided for them. There might be seasons where you might have more, or even less, but when you appreciate what God has provided for you, you will be able to be at peace, and sleep peacefully. The wicked are never satisfied. They always want more, and it will never be enough. This is fleshly, and does not please God. Determine today to be appreciative and thankful, and your soul will be satisfied in this lifetime, and you will please the heart of God!
Proverbs 13:25 – The righteous eats to the satisfying of his soul, but the stomach of the wicked shall be in want.
