‘The True Believer’s Contentment.’
Philippians 4:11-12.
a) The True Believer does not pester other people about their own needs.
b) The True Believer learns to be content in all circumstances.

1- How to be in want.
2- How to have more than enough in everything.
3- How to have more than enough in every way.
4- The secret of being full.
5- The secret of being hungry.
6- The secret of having abundance.
7- The secret of being in need.

Chris.
We should learn many things about life in God’s Kingdom and Family. One of the things we learn is that it is not incorrect to have more than enough in every way. This is not achievement is not made by stingy saving or greedy business ethics, it is because of the Grace of God. If God has Blessed us in this way we should be thankful to Him and contented, not carrying some burden of guilt because God Blessed us in that way.
