Today, during my quiet time, these verses really spoke to me, and maybe they will to you also. I wrote them down today in my day timer, so that I could look back and reflect on them. I know a lot of us are having challenging times, whether it be our jobs, family or an illness. If there is anything I "want" - it would be "contentment" in all situations.
Philippians 4:12-13 (New International Version)
12 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. 13 I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Verse 13 does not say, I can do anything, it says, "I can do EVERYTHING, through him who gives me strength". That is just AWESOME! I love you Lord Jesus.
