Being In Need

RaRaSchlittDuringWinter_500.jpg

Not that I am referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have little, and I know what it is to have plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of being well-fed and of going hungry, of having plenty and of being in need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:11-13)

Plenty or want

Much or little

Contentment cannot be bought.

Seen above: “During winter times of the soul, it is hard to believe it, but God is there too” by RaRa Schlitt in the current ECVA exhibition, “Recognition & Return.”
