Contentment

These verses have less to do with the evil of money and are more about being content with what you have.

Read 1 Timothy 6:6-19.

These verses have less to do with the evil of money and are more about being content with what you have. When we focus all our energy on material wealth, when we believe it is our possessions that establish our value, then we are no longer looking at ourselves or at the world through the lens of Christ.

What brings you that sense of true contentment? Is it material items, relationships, or certain activities? To what extent do you pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness? What is the fruit of this pursuit in your life?

Offer a prayer of confession for those times when you pursue those riches that cannot satisfy over “life that is really life.”
