Joyful Contentment

Philippians 4:10-20

Philippians 4:10 (NIV) — I rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.

Philippians 4:11 (NIV) — I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

Philippians 4:12 (NIV) — I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.
