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.
We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him. Hearing this, Jesus said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”Next verse!With image
