Godliness with Contentment

[And it is, indeed, a source of immense profit, for] godliness accompanied with contentment (that contentment which is a sense of [a]inward sufficiency) is great and abundant gain.

For we brought nothing into the world, and obviously we cannot take anything out of the world;

But if we have food and clothing, with these we shall be content (satisfied).

1 Timothy 6:6-8

Contentment is not dependent on the things that we have or do not have. Contentment is a state of the heart wherin we are fully satisfied in the Lord and His goodness.

Not that I am implying that I was in any personal want, for I have learned how to be [a] content (satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or disquieted) in whatever state I am.
