Contentment — those who have it and godliness have gained two great things. How do we become content? (Or is the real question, how do we choose contentment?)

Mom sent me her latest Bible acrostic last week. Now you can see it for yourself. 🙂

Thank you again, Mom! 🙂

And five of Mom’s other acrostics:

• Coronavirus Reflections From the Psalms
• Encouragement for Dark, Distressing, Depressing Times
• Our Sovereign God: an Acrostic
• Be Steadfast, Be Strong, Be Steady, Be Faithful
• God Is Faithful: an Acrostic

I encourage you to read the full text of the verses Mom used for her acrostic in this post:
