Paul's Gratitude and the Secret of Contentment

Philippians 4:10-20

I Can Do All Things

10
Nowe I reioyce also in the Lord greatly, that nowe at the last your care for mee springeth afresh, wherein notwithstanding ye were careful, but yee lacked opportunitie.
11
I speake not because of want: for I haue learned in whatsoeuer state I am, therewith to bee content.
12
And I can be abased, and I can abounde: euery where in all things I am instructed, both to be full, and to be hungrie, and to abounde, and to haue want.
13
I am able to do al things through the helpe of Christ, which strengtheneth me.
14
Notwithstanding yee haue well done, that yee did communicate to mine affliction.
15
And yee Philippians knowe also that in the beginning of the Gospell, when I departed from Macedonia, no Church communicated with me, concerning the matter of giuing and receiuing, but yee onely.
16
For euen when I was in Thessalonica, yee sent once, and afterward againe for my necessitie,
17
Not that I desire a gift: but I desire the fruit which may further your reckoning.
18
Now I haue receiued all, and haue plentie: I was euen filled, after that I had receiued of Epaphroditus that which came from you, an odour that smellleth sweete, a sacrifice acceptable and pleasant to God.
19
And my God shall fulfill all your necessities through his riches with glorie in Iesus Christ.
20
Vnto God euen our Father be praise for euermore, Amen.
