Philippians 4:10-14

10 How grateful I am, and how I praise the Lord that you are concerned about me again. I know you have always been concerned for me, but for a while you didn't have the chance to help me.
11 Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to get along happily whether I have much or little.
12 I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything.
I have learned the secret of living in every situation,
whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little.
13 For I can do everything with the help of Christ who gives me the strength I need.
14 But even so, you have done well to share with me in my present difficulty. (NLT)

As we live this life here on earth in the Lord Jesus Christ we are to learn to be content with what God gives us. Whether it is much or little we are to be content. We must remember that it is God who determines who is capable of handling much or little. Each has its purpose to do for the Lord. We must be happy with wherever God has placed us. If we are not happy with where we are do not blame God for He knows what you can truly handle. Therefore the secret of living in every situation is to know that in everything you do Christ will supply the strength you need in every situation. The focus is always Jesus. Depend of the one who supplies your every need because He will never leave you or forsake you.
