Today's Verse: Philippians 4:11

Paul tells Timothy that one of life's greatest treasures is to find contentment in godliness (1 Timothy 6:6). With this treasure, our physical circumstances become far less important to us than the character we display in all of life's circumstances. Our bottom line becomes far less important than loving God wholeheartedly. Those who are wealthy and show godliness - a very difficult challenge according to Jesus (Mark 10:23-27) - have demonstrated that they are content to be godly and will be that kind of person with or without wealth. Those who are poor and are godly have shown the same ability. So the bottom line is not how rich we are in money, but how rich we are in faith and grace!
