Hebrews 13:5
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
The writer urges contentment, reminding us that God promised never to leave or forsake us, eliminating our deepest fear.
The command to be content without loving money rests on God's promise of presence. If God never leaves us, we have the one resource that matters most. Material provision may fluctuate, but God's faithful presence remains constant. He is the provision that guarantees all other provision - not necessarily giving us everything we want, but always being everything we need.
