Today's Verse - 1 Timothy 6:6 (KJV)

But godliness with contentment is great gain.

—1 Timothy 6:6 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...​

What determines our financial worth? Do we compute it in terms of dollars, possessions, real estate, or investments? Paul reminded Timothy that ultimate gain, the gain of incalculable value, is really determined by a straightforward formula: genuine net worth = (godly character) X (contentment). What would happen if we realized that the truly wealthy were those with godly character who found contentment in Jesus regardless of their circumstances?

My Prayer...​

O LORD God, the one from whom every blessing flows, readjust my values from the greed of this world to a holy set of financial convictions — true gain is found in godly character and genuine contentment. Conform my character to the godliness that Jesus demonstrated in his daily life. Teach me the contentment that can only be found in you. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

To God be the glory for giving us His word and what to do when we are going throuh a valley of shadow and death. Nothing will separate from the love of the Father.

Contentment is a gift from the Lord and such a blessing greater I believe than silver and gold in Jesus Holy Name. Amen. Smiling.
