Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Nevertheless, you have done well to share with me in my affliction. You yourselves also know, Philippians, that at the first preaching of the gospel, after I left Macedonia, no church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving but you alone; for even in Thessalonica you sent a gift more than once for my needs. Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account. But I have received everything in full and have an abundance; I am amply supplied, having received from Epaphroditus what you have sent, a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well-pleasing to God. And my God will supply all your needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Now to our God and Father be the glory forever and ever. Amen. Greet every saint in Christ Jesus. The brethren who are with me greet you. All the saints greet you, especially those of Caesar’s household. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

In a time where life’s challenges are greater than ever before, adversity is inevitable, and contentment is far from us, this devotional promotes a biblical point of view of a “Yes We Can” mentality. This devotional written by Tyrone Crawford promotes a message of hope, bringing people together as one, and being content in who Christ called us to be.
When it comes to this subject of kingdom stewardship, many of us miss the point. But Tony Evans reminds us that it starts with understanding ownership. God doesn’t take us to court for theft when we act as owners over what He’s given us to manage. But we do lose out on the multiplicity of rewards, blessings and continued favor that come from living wisely as a kingdom steward.
Singleness is a gift. Jesus and the Apostle Paul both refer to it as a gift. It is a season to experience a sacred journey with God, one that is filled with serving and loving Jesus.
When life all around us is turning into a whirlwind of confusion, our hearts may get caught into yearning for how things used to be, or for the moment this will come to an end. Jesus has brought into our hearts with Himself everything we need. It is time for us to lift up our eyes and discover that having Him as the content of our lives brings true contentment.
