Be content; satisfied with all the LORD has blessed you with, for as long as you appreciate God's love and favors shown to you, by making good use of your life, for His glory, He will continue to bless and multiply every one of your endeavors, and grace them with more opportunities to progress, being productive both spiritually and physically. So, we need not to be covetous, wanting to take that which belongs to another nor desiring their position; for, "'Godliness with contentment is great gain," because God blesses, favors and protects all who are pleased with that which He provides for them, into eternity.
Moreover, accumulation of more wealth, power and riches accommodates temptation which leads to the destructive fall of many, whereas dispersing lovingly to those in need, and receiving gratefully what is freely shared, allows for plenty of friendship and greater rewards in the life to come. For these reasons, we need to be content with the abundance we have, giving thanks to the LORD for all He has done; for, He never ceases to bless and favor all who truly appreciate Him.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, our God, we praise and glorify your name, for you always meet us at the point of our needs, providing all that we need in due time, that we may remain sustained in your grace, lacking nothing as Sons and Daughters of God, being Heirs of the Father in Christ Jesus;
Amen.
From Luke 12:15
