Is more always better? Where does contentment come in? Who’s in charge of what is in your life?

We talk about that, and where I have gotten a bit off the mark in my own life.

Scriptures

Philippians 4:11 [show] Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. (ESV)
– 13 (TMSG) ¹¹Actually, I don’t have a sense of needing anything personally. I’ve learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. ¹²I’m just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I’ve found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. ¹³Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am.

Matthew 9:10 [show] And as Jesus reclined at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. (ESV)
– 13 (TMSG) ¹⁰Later when Jesus was eating supper at Matthew’s house with his close followers, a lot of disreputable characters came and joined them. ¹¹When the Pharisees saw him keeping this kind of company, they had a fit, and lit into Jesus’ followers. “What kind of example is this from your Teacher, acting cozy with crooks and riff-raff?” ¹²Jesus, overhearing, shot back, “Who needs a doctor: the healthy or the sick? ¹³Go figure out what this Scripture means: ‘I’m after mercy, not religion.’ I’m here to invite outsiders, not coddle insiders.”
