Bible Verses about 'Content'
- I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.
- But godliness with contentment is great gain.
- For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.
- Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
- 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.
- That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
- The lips of fools bring them strife,
and their mouths invite a beating. - Whoever loves money never has enough;
whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income.
This too is meaningless. - As goods increase,
so do those who consume them.
And what benefit are they to the owners
except to feast their eyes on them? - Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice. - Moreover, when God gives someone wealth and possessions, and the ability to enjoy them, to accept their lot and be happy in their toil—this is a gift of God.
- The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
