God, Our Ever-Present Defender
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.—Psalm 46:1 (NIV)

The ‘If Only’ Trap
But godliness with contentment is great gain.—1 Timothy 6:6 (NIV)
Contentment has nothing to do with what you own, the number on your bathroom scale, or a goal being reached. Contentment is all about your relationship with God. When you know Him deeply, you recognize that true peace, purpose and joy are the fruit of your faith.
Heavenly Father, when I fall into the trap of thinking, “I’d only be happy if…” guide me towards prayer and recognizing that contentment lies in You.
