Life is not as complicated as it appears to be today. Some years ago it wasn’t so. Modern society has made life to be so complicated, hereby making life to be very difficult for people to cope with. A lot of people are homeless today, not because they are not living in a rich country, but because of the complexity of our modern day society. All these leads to worries. But we have been told not to worry as Christians. What do we do as Christians? What do we do to simplify our lives in order to live a life that is devoid of worries, as the Bible has commanded us?
Paul, here, talks about his ability to cope in any and every situation, be it good or bad:
Philippians 4:11-13 (KJV) 11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. 12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
