“Dear Lord, you have said in your Holy Word
that godliness with contentment is great gain.
Keep us from a materialistic spirit
that constantly seeks for more earthly possessions.
Help us remember that we are
to seek first the Kingdom of God
and the things we really need will be added.
Let us store our treasurers in heaven
and ‘travel light’ while here on earth.
Let us, however, never be content
with our spiritual condition
but strive with our whole hearts
to improve and grow more like you.”
- James S. Bell Jr.
