As Paul said in one of his Epistles, he has learned to be content whether in abundance or in lack.

In our times now, there’s so much of things and materials that are just so appealing in our eyes and appetite. But if we just learn to be contented of what we have and we don’t have, then it’ll save us a lot of pressures and stress. Then, we won’t strive too hard in getting all those things that we simply want but just be contented with God supplying all our needs.

This has been our learning for a few days now. It’s amazing how I have learned because of the fact that presently our budget is just so limited to our basic needs. Once we learn to be content, it’s surprising that we can easily look away and control our “wants”. When we are content, our hearts will also be more grateful to GOd for all the ‘extras’ that comes our way.
