1 Timothy 6:8


New Living Translation (NLT)
 
 
 
8 So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.




It is helpful to distinguish between needs and wants. We may have all we need to live but let ourselves become anxious and discontented over what we merely want. Like Paul, we can choose to be content without having all we want. The only alternative is to be a slave to our desires.
