Be content for you can do all things through Christ

Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need. I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.

-Phillipians 4:11-13 (NASB)

I've read Phillipians 4:13 SO many times and have had it memorized most of my life, but when I stop to read the rest of the passage, I am in awe!  Paul learned to be content in propsperity and in humble means.  Even when hungry, he knew that he could do all things through Christ.  This is such an awesome reminder.
