Week 3 | Day 1
Contentment with Less
Read: 1 Timothy 6:6-11
“Godliness with contentment is great gain.”
We are regularly inundated with ads that compel us to get more stuff all in search of happiness. The Bible teaches that we can actually find contentment, while living with less. In fact, with less stuff, we make room for calm and order. Jesus practiced living on very little, and even fasting from food from time to time as He sought only to draw strength from God, His Father.
As our model, we can likewise learn to find contentment when we refuse to be governed by food and by our possessions. Consider what the Lord might be asking you to release in order that He might fill you with His peace. Read: Hebrews 13:5
Spend some time waiting for the Lord to give direction.
