I Timothy 6:6-7 KJV
But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
When you speak of a perfect life, what comes up on people’s minds is luxuries, riches and life without any problems. Unfortunately those scenarios can only be dreamt of and also be seen on movies. In reality a perfect life is having godliness with contentment. In order to please God you have to be like Him and walk with Him. When our King Jesus Christ came to earth as flesh He did as God told Him to do and that is being like God. We as Christ’s followers should also be made perfect through Him.
Who cannot be content when they know that their needs are taken care of and that every situation that they face is a lesson for them. Even if you don’t or you do have the riches of this world when you’re content you’re just satisfied with what you have. You will not covet anything of your neighbor because God is your provider. No matter what size or number of things that you have there is no gain that can measure to being content and made perfect in God. (Romans 11:36)
