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
I have much to be thankful for, Lord. You have given me a family that loves me and is healthy, a job that keeps food on the table, a place to sleep in safety, and clothing to keep me warm. I have the necessities of this life and Your promise of the life to come.
Forgive me when I ache for a little more, especially for my children. I know You want the best for me, and You will provide it. My job is to live my life in a way that glorifies You. Everything beyond that is a blessing. I choose to be content.
