The Wealth of Inner Peace
But godliness with contentment is great gain.—1 Timothy 6:6 (NIV)
But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”—Matthew 3:14 NIV
Have you ever argued with God? Shook your fist at an outcome or a situation? Made choices that have gone against His instructions? In the above Bible verse, after listening, John ultimately agreed to follow God. The next time you don’t agree with God’s instructions, instead of arguing—listen.
Thank You, Lord, for the wisdom of Your Word. I am open and ready to hear what You need to say to me.
But godliness with contentment is great gain.—1 Timothy 6:6 (NIV)
At midnight I rise to give you thanks for your righteous laws. I am a friend to all who fear you, to all who follow your precepts.—Psalm 119:62–63 (NIV)
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.—Isaiah 43:2 (NIV)
