Philippians 4:10-13 (ESV)
¹⁰I rejoiced in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me. You were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity. ¹¹Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. ¹²I 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. ¹³I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

THOUGHTS & INSIGHTS:
It is Christ who enables us to endure seasons of both abundance and lack with a steady heart. When we seek God’s kingdom above all else, we can rest in His promise to provide—not just our daily needs, but also the patience, strength, and endurance to trust His timing (Matthew 6:33). This guards us from greed and helps us anchor our hearts in Him, knowing our lives are secure in His hands. What does Isaiah 40:29–31 say about the strength God gives?
In your life, how have you relied on His strength to sustain you through everything?
