Scriptures Mentioned:

Philippians 4:12-13 “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength.”

Romans 12:1 “Offer your bodies as a living, sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God. This is your true and proper worship.”
