“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. People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.” 1 Timothy 6:6-9

Father in Heaven,

You are so generous and kind. Freely giving from Your abundant grace, You shower us with love and affection. The very air we breathe is a gift from Your hand. You know the number of hairs on our head and each thought that we think.

I come before You today, concerned about my kids. They want and want and never seem satisfied. Once on gift is unwrapped, they are expectant of another. They have so much and yet they are not happy with any of it.
