Let Me Be Content

I heard on the radio today that Jerry Seinfeld makes $60 million a year just from reruns. Wow. That's a sizeable amount of money.

I tried to imagine what I would do if I made that much each year. My giving would probably increase sizably (I hope). I'd put more money into savings and investments. I'd buy some nice things. But what about the rest of it?

I can get to wishing I had more of this or that, but when it really comes down to it, I'm probably blessed that I don't have a lot. It would probably mess me up more than it would help me.

But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that (1 Tim. 6:8).

I have food, and I have clothing. Let me be content with that.
