Satisfied In Christ


Philippians 4:11-13: “I am not telling you this because I need anything. I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens. I know how to live when I am poor, and I know how to live when I have plenty. I have learned the secret of being happy at any time in everything that happens, when I have enough to eat and when I go hungry, when I have more than I need and when I do not have enough. I can do all things through Christ, because He gives me strength.”

This week I wanted us to focus on the concept of being content. Personally, these last five months have been filled with a busy, sometimes hard schedule that has had me running around like crazy. I'm really learning the importance of being content and satisfied in my walk with God. 

Keeping that in mind, let's take a look at how this concept aligns with our value of God-honoring living. Make sure you read the passage above (Philippians4:11-13) and come ready to share with the team what your thoughts are.

Here are a few questions to consider to better prepare you for Thursday's devotional time:

1. Am I applying this to my life currently?
2. How can we learn to rest in God to be content in all circumstances?
3. How does this correlate with our value of God-honoring living?
