TO BE CONTENT

You may think that more money will make you happier, but you will soon learn it doesn't. The longing God has placed in all our hearts is for Him -- not things.

1 Timothy 6:6-8  But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. After having food and raiment, let us be therewith content.

We should be content if we have the necessities of life, but it's not wrong to have possessions God so graciously provides. 

True godliness produces contentment and spiritual riches. A godly person is motivated not by the love of money but by the love of God. 

Proverbs 30:8,9 Remove far from me vanity and lies; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with food convenient for me; Lest I be full and deny thee and say, Who is The Lord? Or lest I be poor and steal and take the name of my God in vain.
