Today's Thought

 Today's Thought:

But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. (Eph 4:7; Rom 12:3-5, 10; 1Pet 4:10-11)

Today's Thought

 Today's Thought:

But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me. His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence. I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called. (1Tim 6:6-8; Php 4:11-13; 1Pet 1:3; Eph 4:1)
