Philippians 4:11
I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.
This verse is much more meaningful with a few of the verses before and after included. When I think about balance, I think of not falling in one direction or another. I think of stability and contentment. But it is also easy to slip into imbalance; to move to one side or the other. With God, my life can be in balance no matter what is happening. Not only can I better resist temptation when I listen to the Holy Spirit, but I can find peace and comfort when circumstances push me around.
Holy One, you keep me centered, and bring me back to you with your grace. I am so thankful. Amen
