Content in Christ!!

Writer's picture: Lucas SantanaLucas Santana

Philippians 4:11 “Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.” (KJV) Needs vs. Wants!! We have Spiritual needs and physical ones also. The item you see on the shelves. Is it a need or a want? Can it wait later, or do you have to have "IT" now? That car...Now! That spouse...Now! That house...Now! Those are some examples. But being content in every aspect of life is key. Jesus gives his children the Spirit of Contentment because it's by His Holy Spirit that we can be at peace in our spirit and everyday lives. Some work their lives away to have material things, pay bills, etc. Don't get me wrong. "It's nothing wrong with having things, but it's another thing when the material things and money own you"? When you're not content you may find yourself spending more time chasing things while family members, kids, and spouse are just dying to spend time with you, but can't because they're often neglected. You're not content with the nice phone, house, or car that you have. So you want to upgrade to keep up with the Jones, etc. When we are content in the Lord, he will hold us in his hand, and allow us to rest in his peace, knowing that everything we need, want, and have is in Him!
